Vladimir Hi, After a user logs in - how do I show custom content on the page or redirect to the Dashboard or a custom page? Currently, after login - they just see "Hello user You are currently logged in! Log out?" I need to be able to provide them a link to the form which they could use to post and the dashboard for edits once they posted.

Hello Vladimir,

You can read this thread. http://wedevs.com/support/topic/redirect-login-page-after-sign-in/

This has the same answer you need.

Thank you 🙂

Thank you! I posted the link on my question and marked it as resolved. A
thought – it would be good if this was a meta field and not something that
requires a plugin core change as when an update comes out – it will
overwrite. This fixed my current urgent situation and I thank you for this
– but it would be nice to see this as an option in the WP dashboard.

Thank you 🙂

Hi Sekander,

I did what you suggest here (http://wedevs.com/support/topic/redirect-login-page-after-sign-in/#post-29693) and it works – but not for users that are activating their account. They still land on the generic page saying you’re logged in. Only once I log out, use a fresh URL and then log in, I get redirected. How do I apply the redirect to all users that log in – even the ones that are just verifying their accounts?

Thanks

Just ask them to clear their browser cache Or after sometimes it will works automatically.
Thank you.

I’ve tried it a few times – it works after a few times – but even so – once the user registers – they end up on an almost blank page. It shows their avatar and “You are logged it. Log out?” text. I need to completely bypass this and have an immediate redirect. Any ideas how? This is a crucial step for me

The solution provided on that link should usually work, but you can try this plugin too: https://wphive.com/plugins/peters-login-redirect/

That plugin helps – but only if I don’t enable the “Login/Registration Override”. That is almost perfect – however, since the regular WP login form doesn’t accept email addresses as usernames and the plugin doesn’t send the username, how will my users know what is their username?

Any ideas? Can I enable the user/pass or at least username to be sent with the confirmation link email?

Thanks Tareq!

Hello Vladimir,

We have a field for choosing user name in the registration form. So you can use that element to take input for user names

Sorry, I didn’t realize that will take affect even if I don’t want to override the default forms from WP. Many thanks!
