Hello great forum add-on for WP.

 

What i am trying to do is get my registration to act like the registration for this site. In the way that when a new user logs in for the first time they are not directed to a profile page.

 

I am using WP for a simple website and not a blog stile site and I am having members to register just for the sole purpose of using my forum.  I noticed that here I was not redirected when i signed in for the first time. and also on wordpress.org you are not redirected to your profile page when you login for the first time either.  So i am thinking there is something simple I am missing.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  And even more appreciated if I am not told to modify the code for my theme or add any code to any files, I am a huge fan of plugins smile.  But I do realize that some things can not really be done by plugins.

 

Thank you everybody in advance for any info.

My problem was I had "block user access to WP admin turned on" but I forgot to put an address in the "URL to redirect to if blocking admin access:" box

 

I guess if you leave that blank it ignores the block since it does not know where to redirect to.

 

now I got it to work with the standard wp login but it does not work with "theme my login" plugin for me.
