This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I am displaying a login form on my site using the Views login form shortcode wpv-login-form. The site is in 3 languages, so the shortcode has been translated. The redirect URL is different depending on the language. That's fine, but I would like to redirect certain User roles to a different URL. Again, the URL is different for each language.
Solution: Keep the login shortcodes as they are currently written and translated. Use the default redirect URLs in the shortcodes. Use the following custom code to redirect specific User roles to another URL:
function my_login_redirect( $redirect_to, $request, $user ) {
//is there a user to check?
if ( isset( $user->roles ) && is_array( $user->roles ) ) {
//check for admins
if ( in_array( 'administrator', $user->roles ) ) {
// redirect them to the default place
return $redirect_to;
} elseif ( in_array( 'family', $user->roles ) ) {
return $redirect_to;
}elseif( in_array( 'native_nanny', $user->roles ) ){
switch( $redirect_to ) {
case get_site_url() . '/de/native-nanny-finden':
$redirect_to = get_site_url() . '/de/job-finden';
break;
case get_site_url() . '/es/encuentra-tu-native-nanny':
$redirect_to = get_site_url() . '/es/encuentra-un-trabajo';
break;
default:
$redirect_to = get_site_url() . '/en/find-a-job';
break;
}
}
}
return $redirect_to;
}
add_filter( 'login_redirect', 'my_login_redirect', 10, 3 );
Note that these redirects are very tightly coupled to the URLs used in the login form shortcode and the URLs of the actual redirect pages. If any of those change, the code must be updated.
