Redirect parameter does not include site URL

We have access levels set up for certain pages. When a user does not have access (or is not logged in) to the page, they are redirected via the level settings to a “no access” page with a login form. The redirect URL is incomplete and does not actually work after login. Here is an example URL: https://www.insuranceprograms.org/no-access/?redirect_to=%2Frisk-coop%2Fdocuments%2Fdistrict%2F

In order for the redirect to work after login, the root url needs to be part of the redirect_to: https://www.insuranceprograms.org/no-access/?redirect_to=https://www.insuranceprograms.org/%2Frisk-coop%2Fdocuments%2Fdistrict%2F

I do have another user registration plugin installed but I believe that this is the plugin that is adding in the redirect_to code as it’s the one that we’re using to redirect users from pages they don’t have access to. I want to say this worked at one point but I can’t say for sure.

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

Thank you for reporting this.

Are you using another plugin to display login forms, e.g. what is the name of the registration plugin you mention?

This could be the issue as the “redirect_to” parameter may then not be handled properly, as opposed to using the basic [login-form] shortcode.

I am using Pie Register pro for the login and registration forms. The problem is that the “redirect_to” parameter that is being produced does not include the site url when the user is redirected with the restrict user access plugin. Once that is added to the parameter, the user is able to login and get redirected correctly. Is the site url supposed to be included in the parameter?

@intoxstudio is this something you’re able to look into? I’m trying to figure out if I need to find another plugin and workaround this issue another way.

Thanks for your help.

Currently it is intended that the register_to parameter doesn’t contain the full URL, as it has only been designed to work with the shortcode [login-form].

There is not a way right now to change that behavior, but I will try to take a look at Pie Register pro plugin and see if I can make the 2 plugins work together; unfortunately I cannot give an ETA of when that will be done.

Thanks for letting me know. I’ll update the functions file to fix the issue.
