I have created a custom login form that will use the default action of the wordpress one. I need to display errors on it if occurs but at the moment the user will be redirected to wp-login.php in case of errors. Also I want that users are redirected to specific page based on their role, I have two custom roles and I need to show different pages to each single role.

How I can accomplish this, will the login_redirect filter be useful if I add it in a custom plugin?

Will a custom page added to dashboard using add_menu_pagecan be displayed to user without a particular role, or there is another way to replace the default dashboard?

For redirect you can do something like this.

function redirect_to_page() {
    global $user;

    if (in_array( 'specified_role', $user->roles ) ) {
        return '/wp-admin/post.php?post=7&action=edit';
    }
}

add_filter('login_redirect', 'redirect_to_page');
