    #-Link-Snipped-# - If the login happens on some other page than the current page, you will have to store the HTTP REFERER in cache or database temporarily. WordPress has wp_get_referer() function which will give you the page that referred. 

    You could then simply make use of: wp_safe_redirect( wp_get_referer() );

    Hope this helps. 

    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
