So,

I took the source code from the login field that appears in the navbar of vBulletin, and plugged it into my websites front page (PHP).

Login functions fine, but instead of redirecting to the forum after login, it just redirects back to the front page. To get to the forums, I click my "Forums" link, and alas, I really have been logged, but I didn't get to the forums as expected.

I realize this is NOT something vBulletin was designed to do, and accept full risk of hacking it, as minor as it may be.

I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on how to do one of two things:

1. Make my front page behave in a way similar to vBulletin when users login. For example: Click login, page refreshes to display the "Welcome, <username>" in place of the login form.
2. or, and this would probably be simpler, simply get my front page login form to redirect to the front page of the forums instead of staying on the front page of my site.

Any help or input is appreciated!
