User login….

HI there,

I am moving over to WordPress from my Joomla installations, and I really am happy so far – it seems a wonderful platform to use.

I am however struggling with user access levels for my content.

Basically I need to be able to achieve the following:

ADMINISTRATOR creates a new user, and a role for the new user.

ADMINISTRATOR can create many roles, which can access different content, likely to be decided by CATEGORY. So…
“role A” can access CATEGORY “basic info”;
“role B” can access CATEGORY “basic info” and “intermediate info”;
etc

Most pages and menu navigation on the site needs to be restricted to the user’s login credentials. So upon landing on the site, a user login box is displayed.

When the user fills in their username/password the content for their “role” is displayed on the ‘front-end’ of the site.

I have nearly accomplished this with the following plugins:

Theme My Login
User Role Editor
Restrict Categories

The problem is when a user logs in, they are taken to the “…/wp-admin” ‘back-end’ of the site.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance

Olly
