Login redirect

Hi,
How to redirect the user after a successful login to the home page?
I set redirection page to Home in login module but this does not work!

Thanks in advance

I solved this by going to components/com_users/controllers/user.php
and I replaced
$app->redirect(JRoute::_($app->getUserState('users.login.form.return'), false));
with $app->redirect('index.php?');

Hi

That's a solution, but it will be overwritten during joomla update, so it's better to create a login page and select a redirection in menu item settings for this menu option.

I have a login module, I tried to set the redirection page to 'Home' but it does not work.

Could you please provide me with a URL to your website and back-end access via PM (click the “Private Message” text underneath my avatar) so that I may analyze it? It is a lot easier for us to diagnose issues when we have a live site to examine.

Hi

I will still need a login and pass to /administrator folder. I cannot open joomla panel login page.

Also I do not understand Your other question:

2- another question: why in my backend in components some components does not display as contacts??

I sent you the details in a private message.

my other question is that in my backend I can not access some components (as contacts component).
if you click on components you will not find them!

Hi

I do not know answer to the other question. Maybe You have some extension blocking those components or joomla installation was not correct. You should ask that to joomla developers.

For login issue. I've added a redirection link in Login module and also created Login type menu item where this option can be set as well. Should be ok now. Please check.
