Question about default roles used for redirection after authentication

[jlethuau]

Hi, I'm evaluating this plugin because I need something like this for a project. I just wonder if it's possible to manage different redirections for all 5 WP default roles?

eg:

• if subscriber : redirect to home
• if author : redirect to wp-admin
• if admin : redirect to wp-admin

Thanks in advance for your reply ;)

You should be able to add the extra redirection as long as you check if the user has certain capabilities based on their role. This has a complete list: http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities

For editor, you might use "delete_others_pages" and for author perhaps "delete_posts." Because a few of the role functions overlap, you may need to use a few to make sure you get the right role.

Then you would only need to add in the extra data fields, and the extra form fields so that you can assign the redirects via the plugin.
