I have the WordPress 'Front page displays' option set to 'Static front page'.
My 'Front page' is set to 'About'.
I am trying to have a different front page for logged out and logged in users. Currently everyone views the 'About' page when they visit example.com.
Does anybody know how I can achieve this?
It's possible to set the front page programmatically but not sure if this is a solution to your question, so, paste this code in your functions.php file and give it a try
if( is_user_logged_in() ) {
$page = get_page_by_title( 'Contact Me');
update_option( 'page_on_front', $page->ID );
update_option( 'show_on_front', 'page' );
}
else {
$page = get_page_by_title( 'About Me' );
update_option( 'page_on_front', $page->ID );
update_option( 'show_on_front', 'page' );
}
P/S: Not tested, just try it and please response what you get.
For anyone else that has this problem you could just add this to the header.php, at the very top before the <!DOCTYPE html>:
<?php if(is_front_page()) {
if (is_user_logged_in()) {
$newURL = 'http://YourWebsiteURLhere.com';
header('Location: '.$newURL);
}
} ?>
OR you can add this to Functions:
function homepage_template_redirect()
{
if( is_front_page() && is_user_logged_in() )
{
wp_redirect(get_page_link('contact'));
exit();
}
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'homepage_template_redirect' );
