I am trying to redirect the Wordpress login away from the standard page so it doesn't break the appearance of the site. I have read and tried many versions, but none seem to work for me.
I found the following code on another forum, but it is not working on my site. I will be adding the code via a plugin, so the redirection will look and work ok with any theme.
I am running Wordpress in a sub-directory, but without its own domain name, so it is at mysite.com/wp/ - both for site address and WP address.
I wonder if this location is causing the following code not to work.
function redirect_login_page(){
// Store for checking if this page equals wp-login.php
$page_viewed = basename($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
// Where we want them to go
$login_page = site_url();
// Two things happen here, we make sure we are on the login page
// and we also make sure that the request isn't coming from a form
// this ensures that our scripts & users can still log in and out.
if( $page_viewed == "wp-login.php" && $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET') {
// And away they go...
wp_redirect($login_page);
exit();
}
}
add_action('init','redirect_login_page');
Thanks
