    Where do I control redirections?

    I have a login page that redirects to an old arrival page. I have a new page for users to arrive at, and I need to correct this redirection. It clearly remembers the old page, even if I change the url. How can this redirection be controlled?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello @steeven,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    The redirect URL can be setup through the [wppb-login] shortcode by adding the redirect_url parameter.

    Example:
    [wppb-login redirect_url="http://www.yourdomain.com/page"]

    Regards.

    Hi Georgian @raster02

    Sorry about the late reply.
    Thanks for the answer. This solution is fine to make redirection after logging successfully in. Thank you.

    But when typing a wrong password, the user is redirected to another page. You can try it out here: https://steeven.dk/register/ by typing in any username and wrong password.

    This other page you arrive to on a failed login attempt is an old arrival page. The user should really not be redirected here but rather stay at the login page, preferably getting a message that the log in failed. Is there such a possibility in this plugin?

    (I have looked all over the settings to try to figure out, why the redirection happens to this specific url at a failed login attempt. I do not know where it is appearing in the settings or why this url is even known/remembered by the site.)

    Hello @steeven,

    You must have a plugin or some code that is doing this. Can you check your plugins for ones that are related to Login ?
    This page also doesn’t seem to be deleted, check how you created it before, that’s probably the same plugin that is causing this issue.

    Regards.
