Zyron Login Redirect

Configure where each WordPress user role is redirected after a successful login — regardless of which login form they used.

Description

Zyron Login Redirect lets you control exactly where users land after they log in, based on their role.

Key Features

  • Set a per-role redirect URL for any WordPress user role (Admin, Editor, Author, Subscriber, Shop Manager, or custom roles)
  • Fallback (default) redirect for roles without a specific rule
  • Works with every login pathway:
    • WordPress default login form (wp-login.php)
    • Programmatic logins via wp_signon()
    • WooCommerce My Account login form
    • BuddyPress / BuddyBoss login
    • Ultimate Member login forms
    • Profile Builder login forms
    • Custom theme login forms (via login_redirect filter)
    • REST API logins
  • Clean admin dashboard under Settings → Login Redirect
  • Add / remove rules dynamically — no page reload needed
  • Duplicate role detection to keep rules conflict-free
  • Zero configuration required out of the box

Usage

  1. Go to Settings → Login Redirect
  2. Set a Fallback Redirect URL (used when no rule matches)
  3. Click + Add Rule, select a user role, and enter its redirect URL
  4. Click Save Settings — changes are instant

Installation

  1. Upload the zyron-login-redirect folder to /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu
  3. Navigate to Settings → Login Redirect and configure your rules

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work with WooCommerce?

Yes. The plugin hooks into the woocommerce_login_redirect filter specifically, so the My Account login form is fully covered.

What if a user has multiple roles?

The plugin checks the user's roles in order. The first role that has a matching rule wins. If no role matches, the fallback URL is used.

Will this break my existing login flow?

No. If no rules are configured, the plugin falls back to WordPress's default behaviour.

Does it work with custom login pages?

Yes — any login that eventually calls wp_signon() or sets WordPress authentication cookies goes through the login_redirect filter, which this plugin hooks into at high priority.
