How to do it automatically?

    I’m using one admin account for login only and then switching after login. It works perfectly, but it’s a few steps every time I log in that I’d love to bypass. And then I have to *remember* to switch or it’s another couple of steps to reassign the last post.

    It would be great if this could be done automatically somehow. Any ideas?

    You’d have to write some code for it, but you could do something on the wp_login action to immediately switch user. Maybe something along the lines of this completely untested code, where 1 is your admin user ID and 2 is your editor user ID.

    add_action( 'wp_login', function( $user_login, WP_User $user ) {
    if ( 1 == $user->ID ) {
        switch_to_user( 2, true );
    }
}, 10, 2 );

    Thanks for trying, but your code doesn’t do anything at all (I just reversed 1 and 2). Oh well…
