Is it possible to redirect users to an admin page if they access another admin page?
For example if they a user ever hits “all pages” /wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=page
they would get redirected to “add New page” /wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=page
/**
* Redirect admin pages.
*
* Redirect specific admin page to another specific admin page.
*
* @return void
* @author Michael Ecklund
*
*/
function disallowed_admin_pages() {
global $pagenow;
# Check current admin page.
if ( $pagenow == 'edit.php' && isset( $_GET['post_type'] ) && $_GET['post_type'] == 'page' ) {
wp_redirect( admin_url( '/post-new.php?post_type=page' ) );
exit;
}
}
Fire the above function on the hook admin_init.
add_action( 'admin_init', 'disallowed_admin_pages' );
Alternate syntax:
/**
* Redirect admin pages.
*
* Redirect specific admin page to another specific admin page.
*
* @return void
* @author Michael Ecklund
*
*/
add_action( 'admin_init', function () {
global $pagenow;
# Check current admin page.
if ( $pagenow == 'edit.php' && isset( $_GET['post_type'] ) && $_GET['post_type'] == 'page' ) {
wp_redirect( admin_url( '/post-new.php?post_type=page' ) );
exit;
}
} );
