Hello,

I need to change the redirect page that appear after logging in. I want it like when you access into your facebook account and the link “www.facebook.com” shows activities, avatar, notifications, messages… etc.

Note that:
1. if you are suggesting a plugin, i am using now the plugin “private_community_for_bp-master”.
2. using buddypress 1.7.2
3. using wordpress 3.5.1

Regards,
Haies H. Alshammari.

You can add the below code to your themes functions.php or bp-custom.php
You can change “profile” in the below code to whatever page you need if profile is not the page you want the user to be redirected too.
```
function custom_login_redirect_to($user_login, $user) {
	bp_core_redirect( get_option('siteurl') . "/profile/" );
}
add_action('wp_login', 'custom_login_redirect_to', 10, 2);
```
There is also a plugin that you could try but it hasn’t been updated in over a year:

thank you for the code… but, i don’t have a page called profile and i couldn’t redirect to “User profile” either.

now, when the user logs in he will be redirected to the Members directory on this link: http://www.mysite.com/members/. I want to change this to: when the user logs in, the page link will be like this: http://www.mysite.com and see all tabs that in the link: http://www.mysite.com/members/username

@haies
did you try the plugin I suggested. The code I provided is not my own so maybe the author @shanebp can chime in to help it work for you.
