Dear Julio,

In php file of login form:

  if (!isset($FORM["redirect_url"]))
  {
    if (isset($SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]) &&
        isset($SERVER["PATH_INFO"]) &&
        isset($SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]))
    {
      if ($SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] != "")
      {
        $FORM["redirect_url"] = $SERVER["PATH_INFO"] . "?" .
$SERVER["QUERY_STRING"];
      }
      else
      {
        $FORM["redirect_url"] = $SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"];
      }
    }
  }

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In form:
  <?php
    if (isset($FORM["redirect_url"]))
    {
      $clsHtmlHidden = new HtmlHidden($clsHtmlForm);
      $clsHtmlHidden->setAttribute("name","redirect_url");
      $clsHtmlHidden->setAttribute("value",$FORM["redirect_url"]);
      echo $clsHtmlHidden->toHtml();
    }
  ?>  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am using this code for after login redirect:

              $redirectUrl = $cfgSubscriberLogin->getAfterLoginPage();
              if (isset($FORM["redirect_url"]))
              {
                $redirectUrl = $FORM["redirect_url"];
              }
              else if (isset($SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"]) &&
                       $SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"] != "")
              {
                if ($SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] != "")
                {
                  $redirectUrl = $SERVER["PATH_INFO"] . "?" .
$SERVER["QUERY_STRING"];
                }
                else
                {
                  $redirectUrl = $SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"];
                }
              }

              if (strpos($redirectUrl,"login.php") > 0)
              {
                $redirectUrl = "profile.update.php";
              }

              if (strpos($redirectUrl,"?") === FALSE) 
              {
                $redirectUrl .= "?alert_message=Welcome back " .
$item->getValue("first_name");
              }
              else
              {
                $redirectUrl .= "&alert_message=Welcome back " .
$item->getValue("first_name");
              }
              require(dirname(__FILE__) . "/redirect.html");
              exit();

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Redirecting...</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=<?php echo $redirectUrl; ?>">

    <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
      self.document.location.href= "<?php echo $redirectUrl; ?>";
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Subject: [joomla] Redirect to a link, after logging in

Hi all,

Long time reader, first time poster.

I need some help figuring out how to redirect site members to a page, after
login.  Specifically, when you give out a link to something like:
http://members.poweroptions.org/news/newsletters/22-fall-2011-newsletter

If a member follows this link, and the member is NOT logged into the site,
they will be asked to login. After a user is logged in, they are taken to
the home page, NOT the page they were being directed to in the first place.

My client wants to redirect to the correct, after login, automatically. Is
there way to do this? I tried using: Advanced Login Redirect on 404. It
worked for a while, but now it's not working at all. 

Please help.

Thanks,

Julio
