Login with facebook does not redirect to profile page

[iulianolaru]

Dear users,
I am seeking help regarding an issue that i cannot figure out. I have inserted in functions.php from the child theme, the code to redirect users after login to the profile page which is working.

However, if you login with facebook, the redirection does not occur.

What is there to do in order to have redirection for facebook logged in users as wel?

Thank you in advance.

With respect,
Iulian Olaru

Hi, Logging in with Facebook just refreshes the page. You need to edit a theme file and specify you redirect url.
File is: wp-content/themes/sweetdate/framework/functions/facebook_login.php
Search for:
window.location.reload();
replace with:
window.location = ‘http://mysite.com/redirect_url’;

Dear sqadmin,
Thank you for the solution which is supposed to work. However, i do not manage to get the right link to redirect the user, assuming of course that each profile has a different link.

I have tried for example http://mysite.com/%username%/ http://mysite.com/$profile/ but with no result.

Of course i replaced mysite.com with the proper domain name.

What is there to do?

i don’t use the fb-login, but maybe the
buddypress-login-redirect plugin
works for you too.

Thank you Anchora. I will be trying the plugin later today but i would also like to know how buddypress works in this situation. Would less load using sqadmin’s instructions than installing another plugin.

Hi, If you want to redirect to their profile then you need to add the following line
File is: wp-content/themes/sweetdate/framework/functions/facebook_login.php

COPY CODE

$redirect = bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_ID ).'profile/';

after

COPY CODE

$logintype = 'login';

You will find two occurrences.

Then Search for:
window.location.reload();
replace with:
window.location = user.url;
