# Redirect Error

 * I am trying to add a redirect on one of my pages and am receiving this error:
 * Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started
   at D:Dee-incwp-includespost-template.php:797) in D:Dee-incwp-contentpluginsexec-
   phpincludesruntime.php(41) : eval()’d code on line 2
 * Here is the code I am adding directly into the html editor of wordpress:
 *     ```
       <?php
       header("Location: http://www.google.com");
       ?>
       ```
   
 * Here is the rest of the code for the html editor of the page:
 *     ```
       <link href="/wp-content/themes/destination/commerce/Commerce.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
       <script src="/wp-content/themes/destination/commerce/TrackingSearch.asp?txtSearch=<?php echo $_GET["txtSearch"]; ?>&RadioSearch=<?php echo $_GET["RadioSearch"]; ?>" type="text/javascript"></script>
       ```
   
 * Any ideas on how to get past this error? I will change the criteria to redirect
   once I get this fixed.

 * Yeah, if you are telling it to call the header function within the editor, then
   it will add that code at a point when the header’s already been called.
 * Besides that, I am not sure that what you are trying to do is good practice. 
   Are you trying to permanently redirect one page?
 * I would check out a plugin called Quick Page/Post Redirect – it may do what you
   are looking for, and do it in a way that won’t kill your google rankings.

 * The redirect will be an if then statement. It looks to see if the user is logged
   in, if not, then it redirects them to the login page. The page is burried in 
   the site also, and will have no need to be ranked on google.
 * Currently, I have the page redirecting using a javascript code, but that code
   is ran after the page is rendered. Which, in turn, causes the page to load, then
   redirect, opposed to redirect before loading.

 * Oh, wow. You are doing a true dynamic redirect. Ok, then.
 * I think the code you want to place will look like this:
 *     ```
       if ( is_page('51') && !is_user_logged_in() ) {
              header("Location: http://www.google.com");
          }
       ```
   
 * The trick is going to be getting before the header call.
 * You could add this just above get_header() of your page.php file, then it will
   run this check before a page loads. Change 51 to whatever your page id is that
   you want to check.

 * A problem I run into, is since this is wordpress, there isn’t actually a page.
   php file created. Maybe it’ll be easier for you to look at what I am talking 
   about:
 * [http://www.dee-inc.com/index.php/dee-e-commerce-center/](http://www.dee-inc.com/index.php/dee-e-commerce-center/)
 * Browse to that link, and then click the link “Live, Real-Time Order Tracking”.
 * You will notice it takes you to the page where you would abe able to do searches;
   however, since you are not logged in, it will redirect you. I am in search to
   get rid of loading the page, then redirecting.
 * And, since this is wordpress, there isn’t an actual page created that I can go
   to and edit the code. I am having to add the code directly into the html of the
   page, which is why I am struggling so much.
 * This seems to be a common problem, with a lot of it being caused by empty lines
   in the .php page, but I don’t have a .php page to look at, or at least I do not
   know what one to look at.
 * And, I only want to check to see if they are logged in for about 5 pages, not
   the other 100 on the site.

 * Hmm… Let me ask you a couple of questions that might get me thinking in the right
   direction:
 * 1. How did you create the page for commerce-tracking-search? Did you create it
   as a wordpress page?
 * 2. If you go into WordPress Dashboard=>appearance=>editor, do you see Page Template
   listed on the right hand side? If not, list the first ten things you see in that
   right hand column.

 * For 1, it is a bit tricky.
 * The commerce-tracking-seach page has the following code which I added in the 
   html editor on the page itself:
 *     ```
       <link href="/wp-content/themes/destination/commerce/Commerce.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
       <script src="/wp-content/themes/destination/commerce/TrackingSearch.asp?txtSearch=<?php echo $_GET["txtSearch"]; ?>&RadioSearch=<?php echo $_GET["RadioSearch"]; ?>" type="text/javascript"></script>
       ```
   
 * So, it basically does nothing but calls my previously coded .asp page, which 
   is this:
 *     ```
       <!-- #include file="dbQS.asp" -->
       <%
       strSearch = request.querystring("txtSearch")
       strRadioSearch = request.querystring("RadioSearch")

 * A little history as why it is done that way is we had this site previously coded
   in html and .asp, back in, oh, 1998 or so, and finally upgraded the site. In 
   the upgrade, we went to wordpress so certain people at our company can update
   the pages and add new content and what not. Everything our company does is coded
   using .asp and .net, so we have 0 experience using .php.
 * I learned some quick snippets to make our existing pages work with the .php site,
   but it is definately a workaround.
 * On top of that, we are hosting the site ourselves on an IIS 6.0 server (windows
   2003).
 * For question number 2, page template is listed on the right hand side. That page
   did have a blank line at the end of the code, so I removed that, but still the
   same problem.

 * Ok. I’ve got something to try.
 * For giggles and grins, bear with me and try this:
 * In the wordpress dashboard, goto appearance=>editor
 * On the right hand side, click on page template.
 * In the editor screen, look for get_header();
 * copy this ABOVE get_header();
 *     ```
       if ( is_page('commerce-tracking-search') && !is_user_logged_in() ) {
              header("Location: http://www.dee-inc.com/index.php/dee-e-commerce-center/login/?FP=/index.php/dee-e-commerce-center/commerce-tracking-search/");
          }
       ```
   
 * This should work if you created the commerce-tracking-search as a page within
   wordpress, using the default page template, and the page slug is commerce-tracking-
   search.

 *     ```
       if ( is_page('commerce-tracking-search') && !is_user_logged_in() ) {
              header("Location: http://www.dee-inc.com/index.php/dee-e-commerce-center/login/?FP=/index.php/dee-e-commerce-center/commerce-tracking-search/");
