how to display forum home page always after user log in

[spatel]

Hi,

I have made some changing to our system such that it automatically logs user in when they click on forum button.
v are having two different database for our website users and forums user integrated.

the problem is, whenever user clicks on forum burron, it logs in the user to the forum but forum transfer it back to the same page.
I want to make changes such that, after every successful log in, user must be transfered to the forum home page.

any idea??????

Thanks

control panel ---> your style ---> edit template ---> standard redirect ---> and after that find this


<p class="smallfont"> <a href="$url">$vbphrase[click_if_browser_does_not_redirect]</a></p>


Replace with:

<p class="smallfont"> <a href="http://ENTER YOUR URL TO YOUR FORUM HOME">$vbphrase[click_if_browser_does_not_redirect]</a></p>

Did you have try this?


if it`s not working, then it`s not working because it`s a redirect. But what you can do, is add a image above the "redirect" and give that image the "target="_blank"" code.

Use the plugin system for login_redirect location

Just so you know, that only changes the link, it doesn't change what it redirects to.
