Restriction and Redirect Login Page

    Hello!

    Can I restrict and redirect access of users to the Login Page?

    I followed the tutorial https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1620-restriction-content

    But I couldn’t make it work for the Login Page.

    I made a test in a new page and it worked perfectly all the options: restriction to logged in, to logged out, with restriction message or redirect to another URL.

    Is that anything that prevents redirection on this page or is there something I could test? I appreciate any suggestions, thanks.

    My configurations are:

    Settings>Access>Restriction Content
    – Site accessible to everyone
    – Enable the “Content Restriction” settings for post types: Pages

    Login Page:
    – Restrict access to this post? Yes
    – Who can access this post? Logged Out Users
    – What happens when users without access try to view the post? Redirect User
    – Where should users be redirected to? Custom URL (my account page url)

    My Login Page is set to be my UM Login Page and UM Register Page. I want that when logged in users try to access this they are redirected to my account page (or even home).

    Thank you.

    Hello @rafaelzrt

    UM restriction does not work on Login page but you can try following code snippet to make it work:

    add_action('template_redirect',function(){
    global $post;
    if ( um_is_core_page( 'login' ) ) {
        $restriction = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'um_content_restriction', true );
        if( $restriction ){
            $access = $restriction['_um_custom_access_settings'];
            $accessable = $restriction['_um_accessible'];
            $is_redirect = $restriction['_um_access_redirect'];
            $url = $restriction['_um_access_redirect_url'];

            if( $access == 1 && $accessable == 1 && $is_redirect ==1 ){
                wp_redirect($url);
                die;
            }

        }
    }
},1001);

    You can add the above code snippets to your theme’s functions.php or you can install “Code Snippets” plugin to add them to your site.

    Ops, looks like it didn’t worked properly ??

    I tested more now. It redirects the logged in user properly as set in my configurations in the page, redirecting to a custom url (account page). But now the logged out user is not able to access the login page. ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

    I inserted the above code with the plugin Code Snippets and applied it only to the front-end.

    Hi @rafaelzrt

    Sorry for the late response. Please try this updated code snippet:

    add_action('template_redirect',function(){
    global $post;
    if ( um_is_core_page( 'login' ) && is_user_logged_in()  ) {
        $restriction = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'um_content_restriction', true );
        if( $restriction ){
            $access = $restriction['_um_custom_access_settings'];
            $accessable = $restriction['_um_accessible'];
            $is_redirect = $restriction['_um_access_redirect'];
            $url = $restriction['_um_access_redirect_url'];

            if( $access == 1 && $accessable == 1 && $is_redirect ==1 ){
                wp_redirect($url);
                die;
            }

        }
    }
},1001);

    That worked, thank you very much!

    Perhaps, it could be a feature for future updates for the plugin. Possibility to do normal restrictions to the UM Login page.
