Whilst I appreciate the convenience of importing this as a product, it appears to redirect all members (even admins) when they log in.

Since it is a relatively simple matter to write a plugin that only affects specific usergroups - or indeed a series of plugins that can redirect different usergroups to different places, I'm wondering how this hack offers further benefit?

For example, I use the following to redirect banned users to a page telling them they're banned:

Product: vBulletin

Hook Location: login_redirect

Title: Banned user redirect

Plugin PHP Code:

if (!($vbulletin->GPC['logintype'] === 'cplogin' OR $vbulletin->GPC['logintype'] === 'modcplogin'))
{
   if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 8))
   {
        $vbulletin->url = "http://www.my site/banned/banned.htm";
   }
}

The text in red can be varied according to the usergroup / usergroup ID# / desired destination. Should it be required to redirect multiple usergroups to the same place, simply enter the usergroup ID's seperated by a comma.

This further example would send registered users to a forum of your choice:

Product: vBulletin

Hook Location: login_redirect

Title: Registered user redirect

Plugin PHP Code:

if (!($vbulletin->GPC['logintype'] === 'cplogin' OR $vbulletin->GPC['logintype'] === 'modcplogin'))
{
   if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 2))
   {
        $vbulletin->url = "http://www.my site/forumdisplay.php?f=6";
   }
}

I don't wish to sound rude, but as yet I do not see the benefit of a product that simply redirects everyone, irrespective of their usergroup. If I'm missing some additional benefits here, I'd be grateful if someone would explain what they may be?
