Filter ‘login_redirect’. Sample code, not tested: add_filter( ‘wp_login’, ‘wpse_78150_login_redirect’ ); function wpse_78150_login_redirect( $url ) { # uncomment the next line for debugging # var_dump( wp_get_current_user() ); exit; if ( ! current_user_can( ‘custom_role’ ) ) return $url; return admin_url(); }

You can edit the login form from your child themes functions.php using actions such as: function my_login_scripts() { //do stuff here } add_action( ‘login_enqueue_scripts’, ‘my_login_scripts’ ); This should at least allow you to get your jQuery running on the page.
