I would like to redirect my Subscribers to our Member Resources page when they login, but only when they are logging in from a Page ( is_page() ). When they log in from one of our custom post types I would like them to stay on this post. We we using a pop-up modal for login, so they are never redirected anywhere during the login process.

I would like Admins, Editors & Authors to be redirected to the WordPress admin dashboard when they log in.

This is what I have tried, but it's not working. Nothing happens when I log in as an Admin or a Subscriber - I remain on the page I'm on:

function custom_login_redirect( $redirect_to, $request, $user ) {
  if ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
    if ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) || in_array( 'editor', $user->roles ) || in_array( 'author', $user->roles ) ) {
      $redirect_to = admin_url();
    }
  } elseif ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
    if ( in_array( 'subscriber', $user->roles ) && is_page() ) {
      $redirect_to = home_url('member-resources');
    }
  } else {
    return $redirect_to;
  }
}
add_filter( 'login_redirect', 'custom_login_redirect', 10, 3 );

Your logic is not quite correct as in some cases you will never hit the one return statement. Try this instead:

function custom_login_redirect( $redirect_to, $request, $user ) {
  if ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
    if ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) || in_array( 'editor', $user->roles ) || in_array( 'author', $user->roles ) ) {
      return $redirect_to;
    } else {
      if ( in_array( 'subscriber', $user->roles ) && is_page() ) {
        return home_url('/member-resources/');
    } 
  } else {
    return $redirect_to;
  }
}
add_filter( 'login_redirect', 'custom_login_redirect', 10, 3 );

  • Thanks @ScottM! It's still not working so I think it must be related to how the login modal is set up. I'm guessing it would work if we were logging in from /wp-login.php

  • @megseoh - are you using a plugin for the modal login dialog? If so, you will need to follow up with the plugin developer to see how to get this working.
