Hi Voogah, I just tested it using WordPress 2.9.2 and the P2 theme and it worked just fine. I inserted the code in the theme's functions.php file right after the bit that registers the sidebar. To make it easier, you can download a copy of the altered file at the WordPress Pastebin.

Hi Voogah,

It may be something specific to that theme. I'll download and install it in a local environment and have a look.

Actually after I reread the instructions I put the code in the THEME fuctions.php file and it this time it just gives me a blank screen??

I tried this today and I get an error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function add_action() in....

I use the P2 theme.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi snowivy, I would take a look at this plugin. It allows you to setup redirects based on specific users, specific roles and specific levels.

Thanks for this post! I have a question though. How can I disable any non-admin user to access the wordpress site and should be able to access it only through the login page? Moreover, is it possible that the admin user would get to see the administration panel and not the site, upon logging in?
Your code above works for redirecting from the login page but the wordpress site is still accessible via localhost/wordpress URL even without logging in. Thanks in advance!

Hi Mau,

I just tested it on a 2.8.6 install and it worked fine. What theme are you using?

Thank you, but I have tried with your code and it doesn't work. At least with wp 2.8.6
