Check that your are on the home page, and that the user is logged in, and redirect if both are true: function redir_user_wpse_187622() { if (is_home() && is_user_logged_in()) { $user_id = get_current_user_id(); wp_safe_redirect(get_author_posts_url( $user_id)); } } add_action(‘template_redirect’,’redir_user_wpse_187622′);
