Clarification around WP Basepage

[Tadpole Collective]

I have a question around setting a WP basepage so the CiviCRM does not redirect to index by default. If I am understanding what is documented here: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC43/Displaying+Public+Forms+in+WordPress+Frontend+Sites I am supposed to do the following:

• create a CiviCRM template within my theme file, maybe something similar to page.php.
• go into WP admin of website and create a new page with that new civicrm page template
• update settings.civicrm.php to include code snippet below where 'myCustomCiviTemplate' refers to the slug created in page that from step 2

Code: [Select]

define( 'CIVICRM_UF_WP_BASEPAGE', 'myCustomCiviTemplate');
Is this accurate? I ask as it works when I click on an unsubscribe link from a mailing, however with redirects from profiles it doesn't. It works when I set the redirect in the profile, but not when it's left empty. Should this WP base page be what's used in that case too? This also affects PCPs redirects, so I am wanting to clarify my understanding to make sure I am doing right or if it's something else.

Thanks!

Hi Dana,

You've no doubt figured out some other solution, but I found the underlying cause of the profile redirects not working (assuming HTML snippets): https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-15933
