What the Plugin Does
BuddyPress Redirect changes where WordPress sends a user immediately after they log in and after they log out. It hooks the standard WordPress login_redirect and logout_redirect filters, so it works with the default WordPress login form and any login flow that runs those filters.
Core capabilities
Section titled “Core capabilities”- Global redirect. One login destination and one logout destination applied to every user.
- Role-based redirect. A separate login and logout destination for each WordPress role (Administrator, Editor, Author, Subscriber, and any custom roles present on the site).
- BuddyPress member type redirect. A separate login and logout destination for each BuddyPress member type, shown only when BuddyPress is active and member types exist.
- Three destination kinds per rule. Each rule can point to a WordPress Page, a Custom URL, or an Integration Destination.
- Integration destinations. When a supported plugin is active, its key pages become one-click destination options.
- Auto-detection. Integration options appear only while their parent plugin is active. No configuration is needed to enable detection.
- Settings migration. Settings from the previous 2.0.0 format are converted automatically on first admin load after updating.
Priority chain
Section titled “Priority chain”When a user logs in or out, the plugin evaluates rules in this fixed order and uses the first one that produces a URL:
- User Role rule
- Integration Group Types rule (for example BuddyPress member types)
- Global rule
- WordPress default
A rule is skipped if it is disabled, has no matching entry for the user, or resolves to an empty URL. If nothing resolves, WordPress default behavior applies.
Supported integrations and destinations
Section titled “Supported integrations and destinations”| Integration | Detected when | Destinations |
|---|---|---|
| BuddyPress | BuddyPress is active | Member Profile (always); Member Activity (if the Activity component is active); Groups Directory (if the Groups component is active); plus per member type rules |

Destination availability is read live from each integration, so a destination appears only when its underlying feature is present. See Usage > Integration Destinations for the behavior of each destination.
