Logo redirect based on user role

[verykindheart]

Hi,

I am using the Genesis framework with a genesis sample child theme. The logo redirect always links back to the home page. But I would like the logo to redirect to a different page based on the user role. For example, a 'subscriber' will be redirected to the home page, and 'contributor' will be redirected to the about page.

Could someone kindly help me please?

You can use this code with any conditional https://my.studiopress.com/documentation/snippets/header/modify-the-header-url/

Thanks for your very quick response Brad. The code is a bit complex for me, but I will have a go at applying the conditional. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction though. Really appreciate it.

Here's 1 way to check for user role https://nicola.blog/2016/03/30/redirect-after-logging-in-based-on-the-user-role/

Or

You can use

current_user_can( $capability , $object_id );

Thanks a lot Brad. Got it to work perfectly.

For anyone else interested, I've posted the code below.

function child_header_title( $title, $inside, $wrap ) {
if (current_user_can('subscriber')){
$inside = sprintf( '%s', esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name' ) ), get_bloginfo( 'name' ) );
} elseif (current_user_can('contributor')){
$inside = sprintf( '%s', esc_attr( get_bloginfo( 'name' ) ), get_bloginfo( 'name' ) );
}
return sprintf( '<%1$s class="site-title">%2$s</%1$s>', $wrap, $inside );
}
add_filter( 'genesis_seo_title', 'child_header_title', 10, 3 );

Here's another way to write the code.

Brad that's beautiful! That's so much more succinct and there's no need to hard code the URL. Thanks very much!! You're a legend.
