Profile Page

  • I installed 2.0.2 and would like users to be able to subscribe tot he site. Once a new user registers, they are sent to the wp-admin page. I really don’t want that. I never want a subscriber to be able to get to the Dashboard of wp-admin.

    How do I kill that behavior?

  • Didn’t test this very much but in the Version 2.0.2 wp-login.php you might change (around line 196):

    $redirect_to = get_settings('siteurl') . '/wp-admin/profile.php';

    to

    $redirect_to = get_settings('siteurl');

    Please note that modifying core files is generally discouraged, so make a backup of the file(s) before changing anything–just in case it doesn’t work you’ll have something to fall back on. Also, remember you will need to ‘retrofit’ that change upon subsequent WordPress upgrades.

    That fixed one part of my problem. A later post here fixed the menu part. Thanks for your kind help.

    Would this work for any versions of WP? I use 2.0.3

    It should – as long as the relevant lines are there. The line numbers may change version to version. If you don’t find those lines, then something has changed and this tweak will no longer work.

    Thanks for the help, going to try it out.
