Hi everyone,
I am currently using this wordpress plugin called GeoIP Detection (link) and it had a feature that allows redirection based on country. Code is attached below. My intention is to have a custom PHP script for each page of my site so that each page directs customers to different links. What I have done is as follows:
1) Create a custompage.php script as shown below.
2) This script would reside in my public_html/wp-content/themes/directory2-child
3) Create a new page in wordpress using the above script
However, the redirecting does not seem to work. I get a blank page when I load up the page. Could someone help me out please?
Original code (link)
custompage.php

Code:

// Redirect only if the home page is called. Change this condition to the specific page or URL you need.
if (!is_home())
return;
if (!function_exists('geoip_detect2_get_info_from_current_ip'))
return;
