Separate login redirect for Admin & User

Hi all,

Am hoping someone can help me out with this. I’ve searched online and within these forums for a solution but have not come up with anything for what I’m wanting to do.

I would like to be able to have a user be redirected to a page I specify, though still have the admin be redirected to the dashboard.

I tried installing the Themed Login Plugin, but that redirects both the admin and user to the same place. I also tried Weazle’s Login Redirect Plugin, that didn’t work as I wanted to either. I did search for Login Redirect, but all the posts I came across dealt with redirecting just the user. Which isn’t what I want exactly.

I’m not extremely knowledgeable in PHP, I can replace code with other code, or add code within a PHP file, and I can sometimes recognize what a piece of code is telling the script to do. But I can’t hard code PHP – yet.

Is there a way to add an extra line within the PHP code for the wp-login.php file to say if admin = user then go here, if user = user then follow the active plugin.. or something to that effect? Or is there a plugin available now that can do this?

I’ve been searching for most of the day already, and keep coming up empty. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
