[SOLVED] How to substitute the default Joomla login

CB Core Redirect stores the return URL that Joomla has set. It then adds it to CBs login module form so it can return the user to their previous location. This behavior should be working as long as latest CB Core Redirect is installed. CB won't use return URLs though if you have a login redirect specified in your module or the first time login redirect, if used, within CB > Configuration > Registration.

If it's still not working then it's possibly bugged. If this is the case then please let us know as CB Core Redirect functionality has merged into CB 2.0 core system plugin so we want to make sure it's 100% functional.

After a third check, I can confirm I left those fields blank : redirect after login in cb module and redirect after first login in cb configuration.

And I still get to the home page after a login. I also checked in CB autoActions, and disabled the joomla Redirect plug-in. I don't know which other component or setting could cause the issue.

Appears to be working fine in my tests. Do you have a module class suffix set within your CB Login module parameters? It's looking for a specific ID and I believe the module class suffix is appended to it, which maybe causing the return URL failing to add to the module. This is resolved in CB 2.0 where the ID can't be altered.

Hi Krileon,

I have no class set in the module parameters, but that might be a good lead.

When I run the debug console, I can see the url I try to reach after login is stored in the session. This is so frustrating...

Press F12 to open your browsers developer console then view the Console tab when being redirect and on the landing login page. If you see any fatal (red) errors then the JS that moves the session redirect to the form is probably being broken as fatal JS errors cause all following JS to fail.

For me to look into this further you'll need to PM backend super administrator login credentials as well as provide steps to reproduce your issue.
