Hey Guys,

I appreciate the time you guys have taken out and replied to my issue. Turns out that wasn’t the problem at all!

My PHP form was submitting to itself so the page was reloading and then the page would lose the query string. so I added the query string logic to the form action so now it sticks after the form submits.

@bcworkz thank you for the very informative reply. The logins are successful but the wp_safe redirect doesn’t seem to work. I’m thinking If I should do a javascript redirect after a successful login?

$redir = '<script>window.location.replace("'.$redirect_to.'")</script>';
echo $redir;

Hey @t-p, i’m fairly new to the wordpress & php world. Am i supposed to copy and paste the entire source of the login_redirect code on my login.php page? I’m not using the general wp-login.php I’m only using require( dirname(__FILE__) . '/wp-load.php' ); so i can call wordpress global login variables.

@sterndata Yeah I can do it on name fields too, I guess I need to know what function in WordPress do I have to set to true like it would if it was authenticating a user and pass.

Hi @sterndata, this dumb idea is for our household network and the people logging on this WordPress will be family members and instead of emails, and I was going to assign them a 6 digit username.

There is nothing sensitive on this and nobody can get into my LAN. Though, if there is anything you can recommend, I will appreciate it.
