How can I use the shortcode along with a redirection url?

    I purchased the PRO version of Login As User and am using the shortcode to have a login link placed in a custom admin dashboard page. I am using it as such:
    [login_as_user user_id="123"]

    It works as expected, but it always ends up redirecting back to the website’s home page. I was wondering if I could pass in an additional parameter to redirect to a different page upon login? Perhaps something like this:
    [login_as_user user_id="123" redirect_to="https://mypreferred.com/page/"]

    I also tried another approach, which is to force inject to the end of the generated login button’s href attribute an “&redirect_to=https://mypreferred.com/page/” (escape slashed properly), but that also didn’t work.

    Hi @aregabc,

    Thank you very much for your purchase and your interest in our plugin.

    The additional parameter “redirect_to” would be a suitable parameter for a future update release, but for now, try to change the value of the “URL Redirection” parameter in the plugin settings, and let me know if you are redirected to this URL after login in as a user.

    Wow, I had completely glossed over that option. That worked exactly as expected! Thank you @yiannistaos!
