Forced site log in

[spiceyux]

Is it possible to:
Force the authentication to route through wordpress native login:
https://indivisiblenwi.org/wp-login.php
vs the Community Events implementation of it:
https://indivisiblenwi.org/events/community/add

The issue is that I have CAPTCHA enabled for the site and attempting to login through the events implementation always fails because the CAPTCHA is not present there. Currently using:

reCaptcha

I basically want to route all authentication requests through the native mechanism

Hi Sam!

Thanks for reaching out to us! Let me help you with this topic.

There is no built-in option to disable the community login form, but you can use the snippet George shared in the following topic to achieve that > https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/standardize-actions-on-community-event-login-forms/#dl_post-1204815

Let me also note that we have a built-in implementation of captcha for the event submission form > https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/setting-recaptcha-community-events/

I hope that helps. 🙂 Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Best,
Victor

Thanks Victor,

I ended up doing something similar. I wasn’t aware of the wp_safe_redirect(). (My WP skills are a bit rusty).
One thing to add that I did:

function tribe_ce_login_redirect( $post_id ) {
	global $wp;
	$current_url = home_url(add_query_arg(array(),$wp->request));
 	header("Location: /wp-login.php?cestate=required&redirect_to=" . urlencode($current_url) );
	return;
}
add_action( 'tribe_community_before_login_form', 'tribe_ce_login_redirect' );

function the_tribe_ce_login_message( $message ) {
    $tribe_ce_login_messaging = htmlspecialchars($_GET["cestate"]);
	$cemessage;
	if(!empty($tribe_ce_login_messaging)){
		if($tribe_ce_login_messaging='required'){
			$cemessage = 'Events require an account to submit or edit.';
		}
		return '<p class="message">' . $cemessage . '</p>';
	}
	return;
}
add_filter( 'login_message', 'the_tribe_ce_login_message' );

I grabbed the current url so that, after login, it would redirect back to the originating url.
Also, passing a query string param so I can message on the native login for that, “Events require an account.”

I’ll make some updates to leverage the wp_safe_redirect() but wanted to share in case it helps anyone in the future.
