[SOLVED] Use Joomla default login and avoid redirect to CB login page

Hello CB team,

how can i avoid being redirected to CB login page when i try to access my default Joomla login page (which has its own alias)?

I'd like to use the second one and not to use CB login.

Many thanks!

I do not recommend trying to use Joomla user login. CB will be unable to perform any of its login checks. If you still insist on doing this then you'll be doing so at your own risk of your site going out of sync or things like email confirmation and registration approval not working.

With the warning out of the way edit "Community Builder System plugin" in Extensions > Plugins then set both "Redirect URLs" and "Rewrite URLs" to "Disabled". Be sure Joomla's registration form is turned off in Users > Manage > Options otherwise users will be able to bypass CB entirely by registering through Joomla.

Thank you,

i understand, the fact is i'm migrating from old Joomla version and i'm aware that this is not the canonical way of doing it, but still necessary to me (and know how to avoid mixed registrations).

Turning off redirect option seems to be fine and enough. But there i go with further issue, maybe regarding rewrite option: if i create a menu item for profile (mandatory), when i visit my profile and look at urls of connected users, i still see that the path contains

"/cb-profile/[id]-[username]"

and not

"/[menu-item-profile-alias]/[id]-[username]"

This happens both with rewrite option off or on. Is it related to turning off redirect option, or am i missing something?

The "cb-profile" menu alias is just the core CB menu item we create on first install. You should find it under the Community Builder menutype. You're welcome to delete it, change it, or unpublish it as necessary.

Thank you!
