 * Can the WP Profile page be edited. Client doesn’t need the Bio form and would
   like to add next steps for being a participating member. We are using Connections
   Directory plugin.

 * Thanks. I resolved it by looking further in the WordPress Support Forum. I will
   be using a JavaScript function to redirect user directly to the Membership Application
   after updating the WP profile.

 * I’m trying to redirect subscriber to an Application for Membership form after
   updating wp-admin/profile.php.
 * This is the source code for wp-admin/profile.php:
 * <?php
    /** * User Profile Administration Screen. * * [@package](https://wordpress.org/support/users/package/)
   WordPress * @subpackage Administration */
 * /**
    * This is a profile page. * * [@since](https://wordpress.org/support/users/since/)
   2.5.0 * [@var](https://wordpress.org/support/users/var/) bool */ define(‘IS_PROFILE_PAGE’,
   true);
 * /** Load User Editing Page */
    require_once( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/user-edit.
   php’ );
 * add_action( ‘profile_update’, ‘tgm_io_custom_profile_redirect’, 12 );
    /** * 
   We use current_user_can to apply this function to the subscriber role only. *
   This function redirects users to the site’s home page after they update their
   profiles. * The function wp_redirect() must always be followed by exit; * */ 
   function tgm_io_custom_profile_redirect() {
 *  if ( current_user_can( ‘subscriber’ ) ) {
    wp_redirect( trailingslashit( home_url(‘
   Application’ ) ) ); exit; } }
 * I looked at Peter’s Login Redirect but it’s not tested for wp 4.2.
 * Can anyone help me please?

 * I downloaded Peter’s Login Redirect. It allows us to eliminate the profile page
   for the subscriber altogether. And redirect this role to the Application for 
   membership, which requires administration approval, before upgrade to Contributor
   role. The Admin and Manager roles are directed to wp-admin as before. This plug-
   in is not yet tested for WP 4.2 but it’s working fine so far.

 * Thanks. We’re using your Connections Directory, templates and plugins. Still 
   refining it but it’s working beautifully for us too.
