I am working with CB version 2.0.14 and Joomla 3.5.1 installations. I have a login redirect configured so that when a registered user logs in they are taken to my "Member Home" page, which is a Category Blog layout. The login redirect works perfectly fine when the user logs in from the main Home page. However, if the user navigates to any of our other pages that are available to the public, and then logs in using the CB Login module, the redirect does not work. The user is logged in, but is then taken to the "404 Category not found" web page. If the "back" browser button is used after this, the user is taken to the previous page they were on, and the CB Login module shows they are logged in. Any ideas about how to fix this situation will be appreciated! If you would like user credentials to test this please let me know and I will email. Thanks!

My guess is you supplied a SEF URL beginning with /. That means you're redirecting to a relative URL, which is relative to wherever they're at. You need to always use non-SEF beginning with index.php for reliable URLs.
