The former Derry City and Finn Harps player rejoins the English League One side where he finished last season on loan.
Three clubs had been chasing the signature of McLaughlin, but the Inishowen man opted to return to Roots Hall.
McLaughlin could be involved in the squad that faces Coventry in League One on Monday.
