Does anybody have an example of how this might be used to redirect non-admins back to their current page? So if they log in on the home page widget, the home page is reloaded upon login or if they login on the login page, that page is reloaded.

Pardon my ignorance but…
How do I exactly ‘require’ it in the functions.php file?
I’ve googled a lot and cannot find the right way.
By contrast, curiously people strongly advise against declaring classes inside theme files.

I tried your snippet to redirect to the articles admin page, using admin_url(‘edit.php’) instead of home_url(), but it starts an infinite redirect loop.

So I tried with the wp_dashboard_setup hook, and it seems to work well:

function redirect_from_dashboard() {
	if (!current_user_can('manage_options')) {
		wp_redirect(admin_url('edit.php')); exit;
	}
}
add_action('wp_dashboard_setup', 'redirect_from_dashboard');

Jeremy: Did you use the snippet or the plugin? The plugin got a little bloated b/c people were asking for configurable options, but it functions basically the same.

Great post. I have a 20+ year-old analog on my wall which I rarely look at, but the tick-tick-tick is always present. When my battery died it was awhile before I noticed — I felt something was off, but couldn’t quite put my finger on it, like it was at the tip of my tongue, figuratively speaking. I finally figured it out, replaced the battery, and all was well in my little world.

It’s possible your email client doesn’t support HTML emails. On the other hand, you may need to adjust the HTML output in setup_email() to fit your own needs.
