Basic Front-End Login

Description

Adds a basic front-end login for to any page, post or widget and redirects to the page you choose. It also can block access to the back-end and disable the Admin Bar. This plugin is for when you want your users to be logged-in, but do not want them to have access to the WordPress Dashboard.

To display the login form, place this shortcode on any page, post, or widget: [eeBFEL]

After the user has logged in, they will be redirected to your home page or the URL you define in the plugin settings.

Redirect After Login

To define destinations in additional login forms, use the “redirect” attribute to over-ride the default. There is no limit to the number of forms you can use.

[eeBFEL redirect=”https://website.com/your-files-page/”]

Deny Dashboard Access

In the plugin settings you can optionally select roles that you want to deny back-end access to. All built-in and custom roles, except Administrator, can be blocked. The Admin Bar will not appear and direct back-end access attempts will simply redirect to your home page. This restriction will be site-wide and is unrelated to the use of the shortcode.

Even if you don’t need a login form, this can add an extra measure of security to your website by denying back-end access to all roles except Administrators.
