Description
Login Redirect redirects each user to a specific URL after logging in to WordPress, applying rules based on role (administrator, editor, subscriber, customer), individual user, or capability registered in the dashboard. Designed for those managing membership areas, intranets, WooCommerce stores, or educational portals who need to separate the access experience for each profile without editing functions.php or installing manual snippets.
Main Features of Login Redirect
- Role-based redirection
Sets distinct target URLs for each role registered in WordPress, from administrator to subscriber. - Individual user rules
Allows pointing to a specific destination for individual accounts, overriding the role rule. - Capability rules
Applies redirection according to assigned capabilities, useful in customized permission hierarchies. - Global fallback URL
Configures a default destination triggered when no specific rule matches the authenticated user. - Integration with native login flow
Works with the standard wp-login.php screen without requiring a custom form or specific theme.
