I have been using this to redirect a user the their profile page, but now I want to redirect them to a specific page on their blog:
<?php
`//=Redirect to User’s Profile Page after Login
function rt_login_redirect($redirect_to, $set_for, $user){
$redirect_to = bp_loggedin_user_domain($user->id);
return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter(‘login_redirect’, ‘rt_login_redirect’, 20, 3);
?>`

I added this ` bp_loggedin_user_domain` to replace this `bp_loggedin_user_domain` but it ends up redirecting me to the users-blog/wp-admin. Does anyone have any idea how to redirect the /wp-admin to another page?

Thanks

Not really sure how multisite works, but this plugin here can be configured to work the way you want I think:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/peters-login-redirect/

[@valuser Participant 12 years, 6 months ago]

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-login-redirect/ can redirect to 3 different locations after login. 1. Personal Profile / Personal Activity Page 2. Site wide Activity 3. Friends’ Activity

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/login-with-ajax/ this plugin’s settings allows you go to any particular page OR to the current users particular page on login & on logout if you use %USERNAME% — its on the settings page

@edinchez & @valuser – it ended up not working the way I thought it would. Is there any way to use my original code with a slight tweak?
`
//=Redirect to User’s Profile Page after Login
function rt_login_redirect($redirect_to, $set_for, $user){
$redirect_to = bp_loggedin_user_domain($user->id);
return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter(‘login_redirect’, ‘rt_login_redirect’, 20, 3);
?>
`

try this — (replace friends with whatever)

`function rt_login_redirect($redirect_to, $set_for, $user){
$redirect_to = bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID).’/friends/’;
return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter(‘login_redirect’, ‘rt_login_redirect’, 20, 3);`

I gave it a try but no dice. It’s odd cause the code will take you through to your profile and also your blog dashboard, so you know there has got to be a way to point to a users blog/page1.php. I’ve searched and searched but cannot find a solution.

[@valuser Participant 12 years, 6 months ago]

Works for me with (as above)

`bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID).’/friends/’`

Does not work with

`bp_loggedin_user_domain($user->id).’/friends/’`

Strange!

[@famous Participant 12 years, 6 months ago]

@valuser

that is strange. I took your chunk of code above and pasted it into the bp-custom.php page in my plugins folder, and this is what I get in my address bar:
http://localhost/members/user1//friends/

I get pushed to the member profile instead of their blog

my specs:
I am using wordpress MU 3.4 with BP ver 1.5.6. – I place the code in my plugin file bp-custom.php.
not sure why I would get a different result than you

[@valuser Participant 12 years, 6 months ago]

My apologies.

i have it in functions.php of the theme – in this case a child of bp-default theme

yes! that site first went to http://localhost/members/user1//friends/ (2 forward slashes) then resolved to http://localhost/members/user1/friends/ 1 forward slash –correct site

try
` function rt_login_redirect($redirect_to, $set_for, $user){
$redirect_to = bp_core_get_user_domain($user->ID).’friends/’;
return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter(‘login_redirect’, ‘rt_login_redirect’, 20, 3);`

forward slash taken away. It now goes there straight away.

hopefully for you as well.

So, I’ve been combing these forums for weeks for a very similar problem, and being that this is the closest solution post, I thought I would ask here, extending the support for this problem.

I would like to redirect users during login in the following manner:

If logging in from the front page (site, not user): redirect to user profile
If logging in from anywhere else: redirect to original url (where original url is the url where the login process was initiated)

Currently I am forced to run the following for backwards compatibility reasons:
WP: 3.7.3
php: 5.3.10
bbPress: 2.5.3
BuddyPress: 1.9.2 +5 complimentary plugins

Active Plugins
45+ with the most relevant being:
BadgeOS: 1.3.5 +4 complimentary plugins
Bowe Codes: 2.1
BP My Home: 2.0
BP RedirecttoProfileforBuddypress: 1.2
BP Simple Front End Post: 1.1.4
BuddyBlog: 1.0.4

I’ve tried to edit the redirect plugin mentioned often here as well as with no luck.

Here is a sample of one of my latest attempts (a modification on redirect to profile plugin):

add_filter("login_redirect","bpme_redirect_to_profile",100,3);

function bpme_redirect_to_profile( $redirect_to_calculated, $redirect_url_specified, $user ){
	/* if no redirect was specified,let us think we want the current page */
	if( empty( $redirect_to_calculated ) )
		$redirect_to_calculated=$redirect_url_specified;
	
	/* if the user is site admin or not and it's the front page,redirect to his/her profile */
	if( is_super_admin( $user->ID ) && is_front_page() )
		return bp_core_get_user_domain( $user->ID ) . 'profile/';
	if( !is_super_admin( $user->ID ) && is_front_page() )
		return bp_core_get_user_domain( $user->ID ) . 'profile/';
	else
		return $redirect_to_calculated; /*if site admin or not logged in,do not do anything much*/

}

(I recognize that the admin user check is redundant, that was part of some debugging I was doing)

I find that every time I try to check for the front page, something happens to interrupt the redirect process. Without a check for front page: Working great! With the check for front page: No Bueno! I’ve been using several debugging plugins and if I understand them correctly, most of the issue has to do with the sidebar login location (it seems to ignore wp_login and login_redirect hooks/filters) and checking for the front page.

I tried many other plugins and most of the code (with minor adjustments for my needs) that was offered on the forums here, including the Ajax one, but most of our login process is done through the sidebar and they just don’t ever get called or triggered during the sidebar login process.

I would love some advice on how to adjust what I have and get it working properly.

Your help is appreciated, thanks!
