    Users who login get diverted to the /wp-admin/ page. Is there a way to hack BP so they go to the root (main BP page)?

    Yep, open wp-login.php in a text editor and find “$redirect_to = admin_url();” and replace it with “$redirect_to = ‘/’;” then upload it to your server and you should be set.

    for anyone else attempting this, I also had to delete these lines:

    // If the user can’t edit posts, send them to their profile.

    if ( !$user->has_cap(‘edit_posts’) && ( empty( $redirect_to ) || $redirect_to == ‘wp-admin/’ ) )

    I tried deleting “wp-admin” but somehow that wasn’t enough to force the redirect to the main BP page. Don’t know enough about PHP to figure out what I’m doing wrong there.
