Comments on: WordPress Hide Dashboard Plugin http://www.deepwave.net On the Internet since 1993 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 06:55:53 +0000 By: chelsey http://www.deepwave.net/articles/hide_dashboard/#comment-23915 chelsey Tue, 18 Nov 2008 18:07:30 +0000 http://www.deepwave.net/articles/hide_dashboard/#comment-23915 Nice and simple. Thought it might actually direct subscribers to home page if they attempt to access wp-admin/index.php, as they can still login if they are savvy and know the URl. guess thats only wordpress devs though maybe am being ultra worried! Love the way it changes the site admin link to my profile, i can remove my hardcoded link now. wicked, thanks :) Nice and simple.

THe problem I find is if the Net connection is slow the User logs in and goes to the Dashboard after which it automatically redirects to the Profile page. Same if I pu the URL in directly in the browser after logging in. http://www.indianpolo.com/poloblogwp/wp-admin/ It installed fine.

Any chance of this being adapted to also hide the wordpress footer in the dashboard, and maybe the top menubar header links? Could hide it css I guess but the 'logout' is handy.

Mon, 15 Sep 2008 22:24:25 +0000 http://www.deepwave.net/articles/hide_dashboard/#comment-23906 This is a fantastic plugin. Does exactly what I need -- including changing the "Site Admin" menu item on my site into a "My Profile" for my subscribers. Outstanding! There is one bug, though, that I found. If I am a Subscriber and I log in directly using the login page URL (not, say, from the log in button under my Comments), then I am taken to the dashboard with this error: Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/.hevea/username/yaoi911.com/blog/wp-admin/admin-header.php:27) in /home/.hevea/username/yaoi911.com/blog/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 770 Now, using another plugin, Peter's Login Redirect, I can avoid this error. (I just set it up so that Subscribers who log in are automatically redirected to the Profile page.) But this isn't ideal because now when someone logs in under Comments, they are also taken to the Profile page, instead of being gracefully returned to the comment section of the post they wanted to comment on. Is there a way to set this up so that when one logs in directly from the Login screen, one is taken to the Profile without this error? Thank you for your great work! Alex P.S.

You can't use both the "Force Profile Only" and "Allow Editors/Authors" options together. Furthermore, the "Allow" thing was not described properly, so I guess everyone misunderstood what it was supposed to do. Anyway, give version 1.3 a try, I think it should make sense now and work the way you think it ought to work :) Hi scotjam, yeah, there is some funny logic bug in version 1.2.

I don't use any special plugins to modify the Admin interface. Maybe it is time for you to consider an upgrade? :) Hi Nicholas, the cool wordpress admin interface is the default interface from WordPress 2.6.

I spoke too soon. I've found that when I click 'write', 'manage' or 'comments' I'm redirected to 'profile'. But I was under the impression that this plugin would only block access to 'dashboard'. I could be wrong, but I think this line in dwpage_restrict_adminhead() is doing this... It checks if the url is not pofile and then jumps to profile. if (strpos($cur_url, '/wp-admin/profile.php') === FALSE) { // _NOT_ Profle Page wp_safe_redirect(get_option('siteurl') . '/wp-admin/profile.php'); } Any ideas please? Cheers! Ops! I spoke too soon.
