Redirect After Login/Logout sends users to a specific page when they log in or out, instead of the default WordPress dashboard or home page.
What this feature does
By default, WordPress redirects users to the admin dashboard after login and to the home page after logout. This setting lets you customize those destinations. Send logged-in users to a membership area, a profile page, or a custom welcome page. Send logged-out users to a goodbye page or blog listing.
You can set different URLs for login and logout. Leave a field empty to use WordPress defaults. This improves user experience by controlling where people land after authentication changes.
How to enable it
- Open AdminEase and navigate to Users.
- Find the Redirect After Login/Logout section.
- Enter the URL where users should go after login (e.g.,
yoursite.com/members). - Enter the URL where users should go after logout (e.g.,
yoursite.com/goodbye). - Save the setting. Redirects take effect immediately on next login/logout.

Troubleshooting
The redirect is not working
Verify you entered a complete URL including http:// or https://. Also confirm the page exists and is accessible. If a plugin redirects users after login, it may override AdminEase's setting.
Can I redirect different roles to different pages?
This setting redirects all users to the same pages. For role-specific redirects, you would need custom code or a plugin designed for that purpose.
