JuliaRedirectLogin
The plugin is extremely easy to use and it does what it says. One issue exists, but there is an easy workaround.

If you use a simple redirect URL of something like 'downloads' then users logging in from the home page of the site will always go to www.your-home-page.com/downloads. When you log in from the administrative end, however, you end up at www.your-home-page.com/administrator/downloads. Likewise, someone logging in from another portion of the site will get sent to www.your-home-page.com/another-page/downloads. The problem is that these other URLs might not exist.

To fix the problem, simply point the plugin to an 'external URL' which would simply be the fully-qualified exact page you want: www.your-home-page.com/downloads

It would be nice to have an exception for administrators signing in, but that is a minor quibble for an otherwise excellent and simple plugin. Thank you!

Thank you for your review. I fixed the admin redirect problem and passed the url's trough JUri to give a more canonical structure.

The authors are quick to support their product when we found an issue. They identified, re-coded, tested, and published an update within a couple of days. Excellent!

This is a very simple, very sweet module.

It is easy to use: simply create a new module from the Module Manager and be sure to choose "Joomla 1.5 HTML Module" as the module type. Now insert your custom HTML, enable and publish it, and you are good to go.

I love the fact that I can specify amounts for the donation right up front. Setup was quick and easy too!
