Quoting Fred Jones fredthejonester@gmail.com:
I have a Drupal 5 site with a custom login form, using function phptemplate_user_login and user_login.tpl.php. It works fine, but there are two issues. First is that if a user logins on the home page he ends up at site.com/front. This is technically correct as front is the front page. This is how drupal.org works--login on the home page and you end at up http://drupal.org/node . We would like to change this, however, to end up at site.com. I tried:
Module http://drupal.org/project/logintoboggan may help. It will allow you to redirect to a specified page after login.
