Redirect After Login

[knuhkles]

I love this theme more and more.. Its getting better and better. Is their a way to redirect to a certain page after login? i dont want to use another plugin if their is a way already.

[adam]

this will redirect users to their profile when they log-in and the administrator (you) to wp-admin:

COPY CODE

/* Filter the redirect url for login*/
add_filter("login_redirect","kleo_redirect_to_profile",100,3);
 
function kleo_redirect_to_profile($redirect_to_calculated,$redirect_url_specified,$user){
/*if no redirect was specified,let us think ,user wants to be in wp-dashboard*/
    if(!is_super_admin($user->ID))
        return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID );
    else
        return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin*/
}

it goes in the functions.php file of your child theme. is this what you’re looking for?

so instead of: return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID ); put return ‘/my_page_link’;

ok so the final code should be this…

COPY CODE

/* Filter the redirect url for login*/
add_filter("login_redirect","kleo_redirect_to_profile",100,3);
 
function kleo_redirect_to_profile($redirect_to_calculated,$redirect_url_specified,$user){
/*if no redirect was specified,let us think ,user wants to be in wp-dashboard*/
    if(!is_super_admin($user->ID))
       return '/my_page_link';
    else
        return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin*/
}

[SQadmin]

Yes that is correct

I am using the above code to try and redirect first time log-ins to the change-avatar page. I tried the following code but it did not work. Am I making a syntax mistake?

return ‘/USERNAME/profile/change-avatar/’;

I used some code in my functions.php file to change the path of member profiles to get rid of “members” and display at the root of the url.

[hughm]

This is the code I use in my child theme functions.php to put profile names at the root. Perhaps this is conflicting with above code?

// put profiles in the root
define ( ‘BP_ENABLE_ROOT_PROFILES’, true );

[SQadmin]

Hi, You should look at @adam’s code: https://archived.seventhqueen.com/forums/topic/redirect-after-login-2#reply-7053
and change from the root of the profile to the change avatar page by changing:
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID );
with
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID ).’/profile/change-avatar/’;

I tried this code and played around with it but couldn’t make it work. I am trying to take first time log-ins to the change avatar page. This code takes new users to the login page on first login:

/*if the user is not site admin,redirect to his/her profile*/
if(!is_super_admin($user->ID))
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID ).’/profile/change-avatar/’;

Any ideas?

[knuhkles]

Here guys… this is my snippet… it works

add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘my_redirect_home’ );

function my_redirect_home()
{
if( is_user_logged_in() && is_front_page() )
{
wp_redirect( site_url( ‘/logged-in’ ) );
exit();
}
}

[hughm]

Sorry to say I couldn’t get it to work. The below gets me to the new user profile but can’t seem to get the next step to the change-avatar page.

if(!is_super_admin($user->ID))
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID );

Hi, Like I said:
You should look at @adam‘s code: https://archived.seventhqueen.com/forums/topic/redirect-after-login-2#reply-7053
and change:
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID );
with
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID ).’/profile/change-avatar/’;

what you have pasted is just some part of the code

Hi thanks,
Yeah, I did insert the piece of code into Adam’s and still couldn’t get it to work. Here is the entire code that I tried:

/* Filter the redirect url for login*/
add_filter(“login_redirect”,”kleo_redirect_to_profile”,100,3);

function kleo_redirect_to_profile($redirect_to_calculated,$redirect_url_specified,$user){
/*if no redirect was specified,let us think ,user wants to be in wp-dashboard*/
if(!is_super_admin($user->ID))
return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID ).’/profile/change-avatar/’;
else
return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin*/

This redirects back to the home page.

[Abe]

That looks good. You should have your child theme activated.

Hey there, I’m having the same problem, activated the child theme and entered the code to child-theme functions.php like it shows in Adams post..but couldn’t get it to work. When my users login they’re not redirected to their profile page but back to the homepage and it looks like they have to login again. Then when clicking on any other page the profile button top right appears.

Do you mind me asking knuhkles where exactly put your snippet of code?

[Abe]

Hi, That code works, just added it to sweetdate-child/functions.php. Is the same code as here: https://archived.seventhqueen.com/forums/topic/redirect-user-to-their-profile-after-login

I noticed that @road2love was having trouble getting this to work. I never was able to make this code redirect to the change-avatar page. The code above failed and redirects to the home page. I ended up settling on just redirecting to the profile page, but if someone figures out how to get it to work please let me know.

[ACTasarim]

@ adam ‘s code didn’t work for me either…

[Abe]

The code base is in this topic:
https://archived.seventhqueen.com/forums/topic/redirect-user-to-their-profile-after-login

modified it should look like:

COPY CODE

//custom redirect
add_filter("login_redirect","kleo_redirect_to_profile",100,3);
 
function kleo_redirect_to_profile($redirect_to_calculated,$redirect_url_specified,$user){
/*if no redirect was specified,let us think ,user wants to be in wp-dashboard*/
    if(!is_super_admin($user->ID))
        return bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID ).'/profile/change-avatar/#item-nav';
    else
        return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin*/
}

You must be a regular user, not an admin
