I feel stupid for trying this and not realising what would happen.
Anyway.
Using the wp_redirect function...
if( current_user_can('administrator') ) {
$url = "https://example.com";
wp_redirect( $url );
}
...I want anyone with the role of 'administrator' to be redirected to the homepage when they login. Seems easy enough.
But the problem is that any consequent attempt to go to WP admin (not just after they login, but any time) will result in the administrator being redirected to the homepage effectively 'locking' them out of WP admin.
So I guess my question is, is it possible to redirect an administrator to the homepage when they login, but only immediately after they login? And any consequent attempt to go to /wp-admin/ would let them in?
This code should solve your problem.You can add this code in functions.php.I tested and confirmed its working for me.
function admin_redirection_page() {
return 'https://example.com';
}
add_filter('login_redirect', 'admin_redirection_page');
I think you have to fire the above code in hook wp_login.
Example:
function your_function() {
$url = "https://example.com";
wp_redirect( $url );
die();
}
add_action('wp_login', 'your_function');
Also we have use die() whenever we want to redirect.
Thank You

I'm creating a custom login page in wordpress. Everything is good so far but I want to add error handling to my page.
In default-filters.php, I added this:
add_filter('authenticate', 'wp_return_login_error', 40, 3);
In users.php, I added this:
function wp_return_login_error(){
if (is_wp_error($user)) {
$error = $user->get_error_message();
wp_redirect( get_permalink() . "/login/?login=failed&reason=" . $error);
exit;
}
}
No matter what, when you enter invalid/blank credentials, the user is simply redirected to the login screen without any indication of what went wrong. I tried adding debug messages in my function and it looks like it isn't being called.
What should I try?
Thanks in advance for your help.
The easiest way around this is to change the error message with this code in your functions.php file:
function login_error_override()
{
return 'Incorrect login details.';
}
add_filter('login_errors', 'login_error_override');
I'm setting up a WooCommerce shop for a client and he has requested that the user be redirected back to the login form after the reset password form has been submitted.
Is this possible? Which function controls this?
Thanks in advance.
A much cleaner solution is to redirect using the woocommerce_customer_reset_password action:
function woocommerce_new_pass_redirect( $user ) {
wp_redirect( get_permalink(woocommerce_get_page_id('myaccount')));
exit;
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_customer_reset_password', 'woocommerce_new_pass_redirect' );
This code can be placed in functions.php.
Someone asked me about doing this and I think I'm going to talk them out of it, but here's what I came up with so that you could see the message and then be redirected in 5 seconds. Add a message/link to let them know you'll be redirecting. Plus, this will last through a WooCommerce upgrade if you add the template file to your theme
Add the form-lost-password.php template file to your theme and add the following code:
if ( $_GET[reset] = true && ( 'lost_password' == $args['form']) ) {
$my_account_url = get_site_url() . '/my-account';
echo "<script>window.setTimeout(function(){window.location.replace('$my_account_url')}, 5000)</script>";
}
If you dont want the time delay get rid of the window.setTimeout() and just use window.location.replace('$my_account_url').
I'm just facing the same question. I think the function that controls this is in the file woocommerce/includes/class-wc-form-handler.php. I changed the following line:
wp_redirect( add_query_arg( 'reset', 'true', remove_query_arg( array( 'key', 'login' ) ) ) );
with
wp_redirect( get_permalink( get_option('woocommerce_myaccount_page_id') ) );
With that change, you get redirected to the my-account page, where the customer can log in, but of course there are two problems doing that:
The customer gets no message the the password recovery was successful
Doing a WooCommerce update, the file gets overwritten with the original file
Would be great, if someone could come up with a "update-secure" solution.

I have created a custom post taxonomy called portfolio so such posts have an url like this: mydomain.com/portfolio/post-name/. This is fine so far however i just found I am having a problem with my Wordpress login and i believe this is causing it. I have a login link on every post so if a user log in from there it is supposed to be redirected to the post page but instead i get a redirection loop error.
If you look at the URL which Wordpress is trying to redirect to you will see something like mydomain.com//post-name/ so it means the taxonomy name is missing from the URL and thats causing the redirection error.
How can i address this problem and have the redirection fixed?
Thank you.
Redirect to Previous Page After Login
Add the following code in your function.php it would help.
if ( (isset($_GET['action']) && $_GET['action'] != 'logout') || (isset($_POST['login_location']) && !empty($_POST['login_location'])) ) {
add_filter('login_redirect', 'my_login_redirect', 10, 3);
function my_login_redirect() {
$location = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
wp_safe_redirect($location);
exit();
}
}
I'm trying to create a custom login page for a custom user page, but I can't get wordpress to stop redirecting the word login to wp-login.php.
Setup is pretty simple, I'm adding a rule that looks like this. account/login/?$ that yields to index.php?account=login. I also setup my rewrite tag for that custom query var. I have a couple other rules setup and they all work properly.
When I use monkey man's rewrite analyzer everything points properly, but on the front end any time I enter login into the url it redirects me to wp-login.php. It doesn't matter what segment it is entered at. so /login, /account/login, /dogs/bulldogs/login.... all redirect to wp-login.php
As far as I can tell there aren't any other rewrite rules containing login. So i'm at a loss.
As a last piece of info, i'm working in wp 3.6
Any advise or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I'm facing the exact same problem. Google wasn't being very helpful, so I had the need to dig in. :)
Right on top of the wp-includes/template-loader.php file, you find this little snippet of code:
if ( defined('WP_USE_THEMES') && WP_USE_THEMES )
do_action('template_redirect');
If you inspect what functions are hooked to that action at that time, you'll find a reference to the wp_redirect_admin_locations function (both the hook and the function are declared on the /wp-includes/canonical.php file - line 526).
Within the wp_redirect_admin_locations function, you'll find this:
$logins = array(
home_url( 'wp-login.php', 'relative' ),
home_url( 'login', 'relative' ),
site_url( 'login', 'relative' ),
);
if ( in_array( untrailingslashit( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ), $logins ) ) {
wp_redirect( site_url( 'wp-login.php', 'login' ) );
exit;
}
An easy solution for the problem, would be to hook a function of yours to the *wp_redirect* filter. Something like this (within your functions.php):
add_filter('wp_redirect', 'yourprefix_filter_login_redirect', 10, 2);
function yourprefix_filter_login_redirect($location, $status)
{
$uri = trim($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/');
if ($uri === 'login') {
return false;
}
return $location;
}
So... The *wp_redirect_admin_locations* terminates the script after trying to preform the redirect, so the solution above won't work.
The only other solution I'm seeing right now is to bypass the function all together which kind of sucks. All the other redirects defined within that function, will be lost all together...
Anyway, what I've ended up using:
add_action(
'init',
function() {
remove_action('template_redirect', 'wp_redirect_admin_locations', 1000);
}
);
Building on top of Diogos great answer, you can even disable the /login redirect without losing the other redirects. I just posted this solution on WPSE: Disable "/login" redirect
I am trying to create my own plugin in wordpress. Everything works great but I want to make a loginredirect check for users who want to access to the plugins page.
Here is my function in my functions.php:
function wpuf_auth_redirect_login() {
$user = wp_get_current_user();
if ( $user->id == 0 ) {
nocache_headers();
wp_redirect(get_option('siteurl') . '/wp-login.php?redirect_to=' . urlencode($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']));
exit();
}
}
And this is from my myplugin.php:
function wpuf_user_edit_profile() {
wpuf_auth_redirect_login(); // if not logged in, redirect to login page
nocache_headers();
wpuf_post_form_style();
wpuf_user_edit_profile_form();
}
add_shortcode('wpuf_editprofile', 'wpuf_user_edit_profile');
It is not working. If I enter the plugins page as a guest in browser it does not redirect. It only shows the template uncomplete. Any help?
Where you say that it 'only shows the template uncomplete', this could indicate that there is a syntax error in your PHP code, and the server has stopped rendering the page at the point of that error.
I would suggest that you check for any errors by turning error reporting on, and seeing what happens from there.
