Auto Login Redirect Plugin

Auto Login Redirect Plugin simply redirects you to the previous item you were looking at prior to logging in. This plugin works with menus, hard coded menu links and the joomla login component.

While the Joomla module worked - the Joomla component redirect did not.

I needed the same functionality so I slapped this plugin together.

A couple of points
* This is to be considered alpha - I created this in about 20 minutes and have not tested outside my development environment (PHP5, Joomla 1.5.14)
* I will endeavor to add additional features if required but the function of this plugin is simple.
* I will attempt to fix any bugs that you encounter and add and features requested however I may not do so at a quick time frame - I am pretty busy and have a life aside from coding.
* I recommend that this is not implemented straight into a production environment - test first
* Whilst this is in alpha I suggest that people experienced with Joomla attempt this first, it works for me and if it breaks your site I will not fix it.
* Lastly - enjoy. Joomla Redirecting to the home page is the most annoying feature of this great software I can think of.
* Final Note: Thankyou to all the developers that made Joomla possible. Even with the little glitches like redirecting, Joomla is still the best CMS on the planet.


Your testing and help is appreciated.

This is a great plugin..it successfully redirecting to the page prior to login page if we enter the right user credentials. but what if the user has entered the wrong credentials in the login form it should be on the same login page..

Thanks a lot for this great plugin,
it works well, no problem found.

Just a hint, it would be nice on
login failure that the plugin redirected
to the login component and not to
the last page...

For some odd reason the plug-in didn't work on first install, as download file I got had the plugin class name as 'plgSystemSSHelper'.

Changing it to 'plgSystemLoginredirect' fixed the issue and the plug-in works great. Thanks!

Great plug-in that works fine with the core login module. But doesn't work with YOOlogin.

It really should be part of the core codebase

Don't you hate it when you log in to a Joomla website and you get thrown to some other page and have to find your way back to where you were?

I had hacked the login module to redirect user to the page they were on, but using this plugin is better because the modifications aren't overwritten when the module gets updated.

Thank you!

This works perfectly on a site I am running with lots of components, including Community Builder.

Installed, enabled, turned off login redirection on CBLogin module, and it works perfectly. Absolutely AWESOME! Big thanks!
