Hi Sbrajesh,

I am building a school alumni website and am using your 'redirect non logged in users to something' to redirect full members to their profile or a specific page (not decided yet) while none members are left to browse through the front and other pages.

I am getting the following error:
Notice: Undefined property: WP_Error::$user_login in /var/www/web/wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen-child/functions.php on line 49
As you see I have placed your script in functions.php within the twenty seventeen child theme.
Can you let me know why I might be getting this error and how to cure it please? I am using the most recent versions of Wordpress and BuddyPress.

Is there a more up to date version than the one you published 6 years ago, maybe incorporating something like:
'wp_redirect( '/group-members/' . bp_core_get_username( bp_loggedin_user_id() ));' to get the full BP dynamic menu?

If you require more info in support of the error mentioned above, please let me know.

Thank you
