01 May Redirect Non-Admin Users from the Backend of WP

Here’s a little piece of code that keeps users away from the backend of WordPress. Let’s say you have built a profile system from the frontend and you only want users to manage these settings through your interface.

function jx_redirect_users() {
if ( ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) &amp;&amp; '/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php' != $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ) {
wp_redirect( home_url('/account') );
exit;
}
}
//Redirect non Admin
add_action( 'admin_init', 'jx_redirect_users' );

function jx_redirect_users() {

if ( ! current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) && '/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php' != $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ) {

wp_redirect( home_url('/account') );

exit;

}

//Redirect non Admin

add_action( 'admin_init', 'jx_redirect_users' );

You can customize this even further by changing the permission(current_user_can) parameter, if you only want admin and editors to access the backend.
