    Thank You! That is exatcly what I was looking for.
    For the first impressions it is not working. When the user is simple user, it does not redirects to registration form. I have to see, maybe other plugins are blocking gateway or something….
    Is there something similar for that what you gave to me? Maybe I can try something else later. Thank You!

    Hi l0we2trave1,

    In case if the plugin is not working for you. You can try this code:

    function ps_redirect_user_by_role() { 
        $current_user   = wp_get_current_user();
        $role_name      = $current_user->roles[0];
        if ( 'subscriber' === $role_name ) {
            wp_redirect( 'http://yoursite.com/page1' );//URL where you want to redirect
        }
        if('administrator' === $role_name){
        	wp_redirect( 'http://yoursite.com/page2' ); 
        }
        //same for other roles just check the role and redirect accordingly
} 
add_action( 'admin_init', 'ps_redirect_user_by_role' );

    Just paste it in your child theme’s functions.php file and it will do the trick for you. I have mentioned in the code how you can add redirection for other roles and where to enter the URL in the code.

    Hopefully, it will help you.

    Thanks

    Hi, I used code snippets plugin to insert your code.

    It shows me error :

    The code snippet you are trying to save produced a fatal error on line 12:
    syntax error, unexpected ‘admin_init’ (T_STRING), expecting ‘,’ or ‘)’

    12 line ->
    add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘ps_redirect_user_by_role’ );
