    Update:

    I have made progress, but have traded one error for another.

    I use Toolset Access to manage user permissions on pages and posts, and I had the Front End PM message page restricted so that only Members (a custom role) could view that page. I believe it was Access that was generating the “Page Not Found” error, not Front End PM.

    As a test, I temporarily removed the page restriction in Access, and now I no longer get the “Page Not Found” error. However instead I get the correct messages page, but with a red box stating “You must login to view your message.” Is this correct behavior for Front End PM? In your initial reply, you indicated that I should see a login link, then be redirected to the message after successful login.

    If you follow the link I sent in my last private reply, you will now see the new behavior.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    1. “Front End PM Page” is set correctly in Dashboard > Front End PM PRO > Settings > General and that page has the correct shortcode and works as it is supposed to
    2. Perhaps I am just missing it, but I don’t see any spot in FEP settings to specify the login page URL. Am I supposed to be checking this somewhere else in WP or my theme (OceanWP)? I am using the default wp-login.php for everything.

    Thanks for the reply. I think I follow what you are suggesting and will give it a try. I will post again with news of my progress or if I run into additional questions.

    The plugin is working great for us, but I think this would be an excellent feature to add in the future. When I first showed the messaging system to our client, their very first question was “how do we send a message to a specific user group with one click?” I also think it is better to select by a custom user field rather than a role – roles don’t always align with what business users define as working groups.

    Thanks again!
