    hi!

    I’ve created a static homepage (.html) with an iframe that displays the wp login box. now, I’m stuck trying to figure out how to redirect from the iframe (login) to the parent page after login.

    So far, when I login, the ‘dashboard page’ is displayed inside the iframe.

    any help is appreciated. thanks!

  • Maybe you could say away from iframes and use the parent page as the landing for your site with a link to the login area. This would eliminate the dashboard area in the iframe, but once you log in, you’d still see the dashboard. If the people logging in besides you are only subscribers, then I don’t believe they can really do anything besides leave comments.

    thanks for the suggestion but that doesn’t really solve my problem… I need to have a login on the homepage… not just a link to a login page…

    I guess I don’t understand the necessity of having the login being the first page you see.

    If you already are using a login on the static page, perhaps you could take it out of the iframe.

    There are already a lot of solutions to this.

    And remember, google is your friend.

    I found a solution to my problem… I typed target=”_blank” at the wrong spot…

    <form name=”loginform” id=”loginform” action=”wp-login.php” method=”post” target=”_blank”>

    thanks for your help!
