How do I remove the account page redirect with WooCommerce?

[freelancephantom]

We are testing HivePress on our WooCommerce website. We have everything in WC setup nicely, including this nice login screen when someone tries to click on the “My Account” page but isn’t logged in.

Upon installing your plugin it automatically redirects /my-account to /account/login/ and shows this very ugly login page:

How can we turn off this redirect to preserve the nice login page we already created? We don’t want any sort of HivePress login screen active right now.

Hi,

HivePress has its own account page, separate from WooCommerce. HivePress is only integrated with WooCommerce for payment processing.

If you’re using HivePress as a third-party plugin alongside WooCommerce, you could try using a redirect plugin to create rules that redirect specific URLs. For example, you could redirect one account URL to another. We can also provide a code snippet to help with this, since the redirect would only need to happen on the Orders sub-page (which is part of the WooCommerce account).

However, please note that if you’re using HivePress functionality like Favorites, Messages, or any features beyond the default setup, users will need access to the HivePress account page for those features to work properly. In those cases, you wouldn’t want to remove or completely redirect the HivePress account page.

Additionally, you can completely the default HivePress login page by creating a custom template for “User Login” in HivePress > Templates. This gives you full control over how it looks and functions.

Hope this helps.

kseniia,

I think the problem is that Hivepress doesn’t have its own account page and/or it’s overwriting the default WooCommerce account page that we’re currently using.

As seen in my screenshots above, when HivePress is deactivated and you go to the My Account link. You get the nice page with the dual logins we have setup. However, when I activate HivePress and go to the same link, it redirects the original page to your (for lack of a better term) ugly login page. This doesn’t seem like a “separate” login to me, it seems like HP is overwriting other account functionality. What I want is to TURN OFF any and all functionality that your plugin adds for these redirects/logins/etc. We simply want to use HivePress for my client to add items himself in the backend, there will be no (at least not planned currently) plans to have anyone login and add items themselves, so we don’t need any HP login capability, redirects, my account stuff, etc.

Further more I also noticed when HP is active, it totally overhauls the menus located in the ORIGINAL My Account page. See here: Upload and share screenshots and images - print screen online | Snipboard.io
Again, we don’t want HP to change any items in My Account. Is there a way to turn all of this off?

Thanks,
K

Hi,

If you don’t plan to offer any HivePress-specific features on the front-end (like favorites, messages, reviews for listings), please use the PHP code snippet below to separate the HivePress and WooCommerce account pages:

add_action(
	'init',
	function() {
		if ( ! function_exists( 'hivepress' ) ) {
			return;
		}

		remove_action( 'template_redirect', [ hivepress()->woocommerce, 'redirect_pages' ] );
		remove_filter( 'wc_get_template', [ hivepress()->woocommerce, 'set_account_template' ] );
	},
	1000
);

This will also disable the login page redirect.
