Login redirect to a specific page depending on group

    I’m running Groups Plug-in version 2.2.0

    I’ve setup about 8 different groups, and they all were able to login fine.

    But when they login, they all go to the Dashboard. Is there an easy way to give each of the logins a separate URL to go to when they login? Or at least they can all go to the same URL? I just don’t want them to land on the Dashboard when they login.

    Thanks,
    SunnyOz

  • Hi @sunnyoz,
    You can use ‘redirect’ param of the [groups_login] shortcode.
    Using this shortcode and the [groups_member] shortcode you can redirect each group to a distint url.

    Sorry, @eggemplo, I am still confused. My Log-in page only has this on the page:

    [theme-my-login]

    Where do I put the the shortcode you are suggesting? Does it go under the [theme-my-login]?

    Like this:

    [theme-my-login]
    [groups_login]
    [groups_member group=”Committee Members”]
    https://www.12thcaulfield.asn.au/committee-members/
    [/groups_member]
    [groups_member group=”Cub Scouts,Cub Leaders”]
    https://www.12thcaulfield.asn.au/cub-members/
    [/groups_member]
    [/groups_login]

    Hi,
    I was thinking something like this:

    [groups_member group=”Committee Members”]
[groups_login redirect="https://www.12thcaulfield.asn.au/committee-members/"]
[/groups_member]
....

    But in this point, the user is a guest, so this doesn’t work.
    You could create a login Commitee Members page:
    [groups_login redirect="https://www.12thcaulfield.asn.au/committee-members/"]
    Another login page for Cub Leaders:
    [groups_login redirect="https://www.12thcaulfield.asn.au/cub-members/"]
    …
    …
    Or only a login page and redirect to a common page.
    Kind Regards,

    Oh, dear.. excuse me!! I see that I am using the login form from TML.. so sorry for bothering you. I think I ended up using TML because I couldn’t get that part of Groups to work for me, and I was under a deadline. (I haven’t touched this site in 3 months, so I guess I forgot what I ended up doing.) I’ve got it to work now, that I realised I needed to edit the TML plugin correctly. I would like to figure out how to do this all through Groups one day, but I will table that for now. Thanks anyway.

    Hi @sunnyoz,
    If you want you can try the Groups Login Redirect plugin that I have created.
    When you install and activate the plugin, you have a new menu item where you can set the urls.

    Hi,
    This Groups_Login_Redirect is not in the plugin library of WordPress?
    I do find only a php file on Github.
