Hi Dear BuddyPress Membership Plugin Users,

We received a ticket from our user, in which he asked:

When users logged in, it takes me to my profile page, how can I change that so it takes me to the home page instead?

I think maybe more users have the same question, I’d like reply it in here publicly 🙂

After BuddyPress Users Logged in, It Takes Me To My profile Page, How Can I Change That So It Takes Me To The Home Page Instead?

With Buddypress Membership Plugin, you can do it very easy, would you please:

#1 Login wordpress admin area

#2 Click “BP Members Only” menu item

#3 Click “Redirect Settings” sub menu item

#4 In “Members Only Login Redirect / Logout Redirect Based on User Roles” panel, you will find in each user roles panel, we have many redirect methods, in “Redirect After Login” option, you can just specific the URL in “Redirect to Certain URL”, for example, enter the URL of your home page 🙂

That’s all 🙂

I made a screenshot for “”Members Only Login Redirect / Logout Redirect Based on User Roles” panel”, so you can understand it more easier:
