Hiding Home Page From a Logged in Member
5 replies · Started by John on September 13, 2020
Hi!
The home page of our site has an invitation to visit a sales page for a membership offer. The primary menu has three links: HOME, CONTACT, LOG-IN.
If a member logs-in, they are taken to a 'WELCOME' page. The HOME link is still in the primary menu, and is clickable. From a logged-in user perspective, the HOME page is no longer relevant, so its presence is confusing.
What I'd like is that a logged-in user not see that HOME page link, in the primary menu, but it should still be visible to a logged-out user.
How can this be done?
Thanks!
Maybe I need a conditional display plugin. I'll give this one a try and report back.

That worked to remove the HOME link in the primary menu when a user is logged in.
Now I need a redirect so if someone goes to the homepage, and they are logged in, they will be redirected to another page on the site.
Ok... found the solution. This is a new snippet which I've called 'If user logged in redirect from home page to posts page'
add_action('wp', 'add_login_check');
function add_login_check() {
if ( is_user_logged_in() && is_page( #-of-page ) ) {
wp_redirect('https://yhour-specoial-url.com');
exit;
}
