Many folks online appear to be having difficulty with this so I've decided to share my solution:
Add the following code to your theme's functions.php file:
I posted this in the WordPress.org forum for the plugin too.
// Plugin by <a href="
http://wordpress.org/extend/pl….." ; rel="nofollow">
http://wordpress.org/extend/pl…../a> ;
// Solution by <a href="
http://www.dominornovus.com" ; rel="nofollow">
http://www.dominornovus.com<…../a> ;
function login_widget_redirect( $empty, $redirect_to, $requested_redirect_to, $user )
{
// If the referring page contains "/forums/"…
if (stripos($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'],'/forums/') !== false)
{
$referringpage = $_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER];
return $referringpage;
}
//Otherwise, check the referring page contains "/blog/"…
else if (stripos($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'],'/blog/') !== false)
{
$referringpage = $_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER];
return $referringpage;
}
// Otherwise, default to the plugin's redirect settings…
else
{
return false;
}
}
add_filter( 'rul_before_user', 'login_widget_redirect', 10, 4 );
This will effectively disable the plugin's redirect settings anytime a user logs in from a forum or blog page. The standard wp-login.php page will inherit the plugin's redirect settings.
