Website visible only to Registered users (non wp-admin)

Question

I have created a page with a custom login using wp_login_form() function but how can I redirect all visitors to that page in similar way described in that topic?

My code looks like:

function redirect_to_login_if_guest() {

global $post;

if ( ! is_admin() && ! is_user_logged_in() && $post->ID !== 4667 ) {
    wp_redirect( get_permalink(4667) );
    exit;
}
}
add_action( 'wp_loaded', 'redirect_to_login_if_guest' );

but somehow is going into infinite loop instead of a login page. It looks like wp_loaded can't be used in my case.

Similar code moved to the `header.php'

global $post;

if ( ! is_admin() && ! is_user_logged_in() && $post->ID != 4667 ) {
    wp_redirect( get_permalink(4667) );
    exit;
}

works flawless so still it points on triggering action on wp_loaded. Any thoughts?

Answer 1

In short, the $post global isn't setup at the wp_loaded state. See:

• When and Where is global $post Set and Available?

for detailed information.

So use another hook, like template_redirect.
