Hello Guillermo

Nothing has been changed regarding this.

The page redirect is not being handled by Amelia, but by WordPress, so you should check if there are any changes in WordPress settings.

Hello again Guillermo

By default, WordPress redirects all users that log in through www.yoursite.com/wp-admin or www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php to the dashboard (wp-admin), and to change that, you usually need a 3rd party plugin, like WP Redirect To Homepage After Login. Also, some themes have that included in their functions.php file, like (for example):

// Block Access to /wp-admin for non admins.
function custom_blockusers_init() {
  if ( is_user_logged_in() && is_admin() && !current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
    wp_redirect( home_url() );
    exit;
  }
}
add_action( 'init', 'custom_blockusers_init' ); // Hook into 'init'

So whatever caused your wp-admin login page to redirect users to the home page instead of wp-admin should still be doing that.

I'll reach out to our development team, and see if there's anything we can do to modify Amelia's behavior, so it redirects to the home page, and I'll get back to you as soon as I receive a response.

Hello again Guillermo

Can you please access ../wp-content/plugins/ameliabooking/ameliabooking.php and on line 183 find this code:

add_filter('woocommerce_prevent_admin_access', '__return_false');

Comment it, so it looks like this:

//add_filter('woocommerce_prevent_admin_access', '__return_false');

Save the file, and try again.

Please let me know if that works.

Thank you Guillermo

I hope you managed to make it work.

Hello again Guillermo

I'm glad to hear it works.

I doubt there will be anything we can do about this, since - like I mentioned - WordPress redirects all users that log in through www.yoursite.com/wp-admin or www.yoursite.com/wp-login.php to the dashboard (wp-admin) by default. WooCommerce is changing that, so we've simply commented a line of code in our file to override this behavior.

I'll ask our developers, but I can't promise anything.

Hi again Guillermo

Like I said - I'll ask our developers, so it'll be up to them if this will be changed or not. I personally have over a hundred tickets every day, and you're the first one to report this. We implement things based on customers' requests. If multiple customers are asking for the same thing, more likely that's going to be implemented. That's why I said I don't believe we'll be making that change - it's not asked - but I have already forwarded your request to our development team, to take into consideration.

You can add it as a feature suggestion as well on this page.
