redirect based on roles | Peter's Login Redirect | Forum

Ok I contacted my theme support and they have run some tests and determined that is not the theme causing the issues,,, it is the plugin WP-Members. Below is the message I had received from them.
I'm not sure if there is a way to disable the redirect and let your Plugin handle the redirect.

____________________

In the end it wasn't our theme causing the redirect issue with the "Peters Login Redirect" plugin, but instead it was the "WP Members" plugin causing the issue.

If you open up the following file on your server wp-members/wp-members-dialogs.php and go to line # 794 you'll see the input field:

';

This input field gets outputted on the login form on your homepage.

When I viewed source on your homepage I noticed that the input field value was blank:

Now if you open up the following file on your server plugins/wp-members/wp-members-core.php and go to line # 367 – 370 you'll see the following code:

$redirect_to = $_POST['redirect_to'];
if (!$redirect_to) {
$redirect_to = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
}
This code is saying if the $_POST['redirect_to'] field is empty set the $redirect_to variable to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] which means redirect to the page you're on.

The line of code that handles the redirect is on line # 386 in the same file:

wp_redirect($redirect_to);

This is why the "Peters Login Redirect" plugin isn't working.

I'm having the same issue with wp-members, but the prescribed solution of replacing likes 367-370 didn't work for me, and ends up breaking my redirect entirely (the page doesn't load, but it does show the correct url in the address bar)..

any idea why?

I have the same problem, but looks like the code have been rewritten since this workaround was posted. I'm not too familiar with writing code, so I very thankful if you could have a look at it;

Lines 819-847:
function wpmem_login()
{
if( isset( $_POST['redirect_to'] ) ) {
$redirect_to = $_POST['redirect_to'];
} else {
$redirect_to = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
}
$redirect_to = apply_filters( 'wpmem_login_redirect', $redirect_to );
if( isset( $_POST['rememberme'] ) == 'forever' ) {
$rememberme = true;
} else {
$rememberme = false;
}
