Is it possible to change the Default “Home” admin page when logging into the WordPress Dashboard?
I thought about a couple of possibilities…
- Substitute the content on the Dashboard home page with custom
content. - Redirect to a different admin page within the WordPress Dashboard
upon successful login.
If it is possible to do either of the two options, what hooks would you recommend utilizing?
Easy enough, decided to just do the redirect option. I used the
wp_login
action hook. You could also probably use this for redirecting your users to ANY page on your website. You can also check user capabilities from the$user
Object passed in as a function parameter if you want to send different user levels to different pages.
