Redirect Logged Users with WP Ghost

If you are using the WP Ghost plugin, you can use the built-in option to redirect logged users to the admin dashboard. Here is how you can do it:

  1. Go to WP Ghost > Tweaks > Redirects.
  2. Switch on the Redirects Logged Users To Dashboard option to automatically redirect users to the WordPress dashboard when they are logged in.
  3. Click the Save button to apply the changes

Once you have activated the option, any logged-in user accessing the custom login path will be automatically redirected to the admin dashboard.

Redirect Logged Users with Code

Alternatively, you can use a hook code if you use a custom login path for your WordPress website and want to automatically redirect logged-in users to the admin dashboard.

Here is how you can do it:

add_action('hmwp_login_init',function(){
   global $current_user;
   if (isset($current_user->ID)){
      wp_redirect(admin_url());
      exit;
    }
});

Save the changes and upload the file to your server.

Once you have added the hook code, any logged-in user accessing the custom login path will be automatically redirected to the admin dashboard or the path you set in the code. This can be a helpful feature for your users and save them time and effort.

That’s it! You have now learned to redirect logged users to the admin dashboard using a custom login path on your WordPress website.
