    Hi,

    I was wondering if somebody could help me?

    I am in the process on making a website using BuddyPress. I was wondering if it is possible to make a link in the navigation disappear once the user has signed in.

    I currently have the following navigation: Home | Activity | Members | Groups | Forum. However once the user has logged in I would like the Home link to disappear, as they don’t need to read about signing up.

    I hope I was clear in what my problem is. Hope someone can help.

    Thanks

    WordPress has this built in – https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_user_logged_in

    Thank you ipstenu for getting back to me.

    At the minute once the user logs in it redirects the to their profile page. How and where do i include that code so the home button disappears?

    Look at header.php in your child theme. That has the UL for the navigation elements.

    Those are two different questions. :) Login With Ajax would help with the redirect. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/login-with-ajax/

    As for the home button, in your header.php you just wrap is user logged in around Home. See https://wordpress.org/support/topic/367625?replies=5 for a bit more (and some oddities people are having with it…)

    I have a plug-in that forwards the user to their profile once they login, I just now need the home button to disappear as they no longer need to view this page. I have limited knowledge using PHP so I don’t know what i need to add or edit to my header.php file to enable this to happen. Does anyone have the specific piece of code i need for this to happen? Thanks
