WordPress - redirect user to destination after clicking on automated email links
Budget: $49 – $50 AUD
I have a WordPress site that sends automatic emails to users depending on user events and actions (example: registration confirmation email, and more). The emails usually have a link that when clicked, is supposed to redirect the user to the desired location. It works as follows:
1. User receives an automatic email in user’s inbox. The email will normally have a link to the website, to a specific page requiring user attention or action. This example shows link to “Test datatables”. The actual destination of link is shown in red.
2. When user clicks email link “Test datatables”, user is taken to login page to proceed
3. However, after successful login, user is redirected to dashboard page (home page), shown in blue link. User is not taken to original destination after login. In every email (each email has a different link to different destination), user is first taken to login page, then dashboard, not the original link. This results in user not being redirected to where user is required to take the action called upon by the email
4. What you need to do is ensure that ALL emails that have such links redirect user to the original link after login, not dashboard (home page). Theme has many automatic emails. There are many. You may need to do it once with a function or something like that.
(Please see screenshots, which are numbered in same sequence as the points above)
