Thanks.
I know that and I do it already to check whether users are known or unknown outside the board. But thanks for clarifying anyway.

Meanwhile I took a look at the navbar template:

PHP Code:

<form action="login.php" method="post" onsubmit="md5hash(vb_login_password,vb_login_md5password)">
        <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
        <input type="hidden" name="forceredirect" value="1" />            <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />

... 


And here is the list of issues I have with this:

1. Once the user submits this form the form action forces him to go to login.php which leaves him with the forum index page. But I want the user to get transferred to whatever URL I want outside vB after logging in.

2. What do the undocumented hidden input fields do, forceredirect and vb_login_md5password mean?

Does this clarify my thoughts a bit?
