How to Use
Download > Install > Activate. To edit, use your favorite IDE or just edit within the WordPress plugin editor. Change the page to redirect to where indicated.
Example
I’ve edited my installation of this plugin to read: return '/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=dlm_download&page=download-monitor-reports';
so when I login, I’m immediately taken to where I’d look to see how many downloads each plugin received.
Source
This code can be pasted into the functions.php file of your child theme or, download and install the plugin for simple code activation.
