New Users see WP dashboard

[kg]

I just noticed that when new users register, they see my wp dashboard.  they can’t edit anything but they should be redirected to the front end admin page not the WP dashboard.  not sure how to change that.

Thanks again.

That’s not a bug. Change your login redirect in theme options > misc

I have the Login Redirect for Popup set to “Reload current page”. should that be displaying the WP Dashboard?

Here is what I need to do. I thought the plugin support team were the ones i should contact first but apparently not. I am using the Plugin Events Calendar. I would like the only login that users experience to be the Kleo pop-up login. When a user on my site selects LOGIN from the menu, that is what they get. however, when a user selects ADD EVENT from the menu, they are redirected to the a different login (I believe is the wp-admin login) form which then takes them to the WP Dashboard.

I contacted the plugin support team an this is what they responded with:

Here’s what I need to have happen…
1)
Q: Users already logged in through the theme-pop up login won’t have to login again to Events Calendar

A: This depends on how the theme login works. If it uses standard WordPress auth then this shouldn’t happen. Can you point me to the theme documentation on this? If that’s not available maybe you can reach out to the theme author on this.

2)
Q: Users NOT logged in through the theme pop-up login will see the pop-up login and then then be redirected to the Add-Event page.

A: Knowing if the theme login works with default WordPress auth process will determine if this is doable as well. Per default WordPress login accepts a redirect parameter to redirect users after successful login, not sure if your theme login supports that.

Does Kleo use the standard wordpress Auth?

You can access my site with the following login info:

Admin
AdminAcce$$1

It uses the standard auth. Tell them you need to change their login link. It needs to have the ‘kleo-show-login’ class added to it. That’s what triggers the login modal.

And here is the documentation on that: https://archived.seventhqueen.com/documentation/kleo#login-redirect

Hi again. I am still having issues with this and after going back and forth with the support team from the Events Calendar plugin, they are saying that I need to connect with Theme support for help. here is my complete thread from with them to give you the full detailed background. To summarize my issue, once a user is logged in, when the select “ADD EVENT” from the menu, the plugin is not recognizing the user as being logged in and brings up their own login screen. After speaking with them (as you can see in the thread), they said they use the standard WordPress Auth and they use the default WordPress function is_user_logged_in to check if users are logged in. I see that the latest update of Kleo shows some new redirect and Registration features – but after updating to the latest version, I am still having these issues. It may be worth noting that I am using the KLEO login NOT the Buddypress login. I’m desperate to get this resolved as I have been trying for about a month and am not ant closer to resolving it.

Non-admin access in case you would like to test is:

Thank you again!!

You are mistaken in your thinking about what’s happening. The problem is with your “add event” link. Its all fine and good to have added “kleo-show-login” to it to launch the modal, but its going to launch the modal whether you’re logged in or not. What you need is a conditional menu item. One add event menu item with kleo-show-login that will only be displayed to people who are not logged in and another one without kleo-show-login that will only be displayed to people who are logged in.

Brilliant! You’re awesome! Worked like a charm. I tested it with that plugin as well as this one which I found a bit easier as it doesn’t require any knowledge of coding or conditional items.
