Hi JJ,

This is out-of-the-box behavior actually, but easily fixed. I implemented this on a site I did recently using the following view found at ~/Views/MacroPartials/Login.cshtml:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage

@using System.Web.Mvc.Html
@using ClientDependency.Core.Mvc
@using Umbraco.Web
@using Umbraco.Web.Models
@using Umbraco.Web.Controllers

@{
    var loginModel = new LoginModel();

    Html.EnableClientValidation();
    Html.EnableUnobtrusiveJavaScript();
    Html.RequiresJs("/umbraco_client/ui/jquery.js");
    Html.RequiresJs("/umbraco_client/Application/JQuery/jquery.validate.min.js");
    Html.RequiresJs("/umbraco_client/Application/JQuery/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js");
}

@* NOTE: This RenderJsHere code should be put on your main template page where the rest of your script tags are placed *@
@Html.RenderJsHere()

@using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm<UmbLoginController>("HandleLogin"))
{
    if (!Members.IsLoggedIn())
    {
        @Html.ValidationSummary("loginModel", true)
        @Html.HiddenFor(m => loginModel.RedirectUrl)

        <fieldset>

            @Html.ValidationSummary("loginModel", true)

            @Html.LabelFor(m => loginModel.Username)
            @Html.TextBoxFor(m => loginModel.Username)
            @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => loginModel.Username)
            <br/>

            @Html.LabelFor(m => loginModel.Password)
            @Html.PasswordFor(m => loginModel.Password)
            @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => loginModel.Password)
            <br/>
            <a href="forgotten-your-password" class="password-reset">Forgotten your password?</a>
            <button>Login</button>
        </fieldset>
    }
    else
    {
        if (Request.UrlReferrer != null && !Request.UrlReferrer.AbsolutePath.IsNullOrWhiteSpace())
        {
            Response.Redirect(Request.UrlReferrer.AbsolutePath);
        }
        else
        {
            Response.Redirect("/");
        }
    }
}

So I can't remember how close this is to the view that Umbraco generates but the key points are first checking if the member is logged in:

if (!Members.IsLoggedIn())
    {

}

If they are, show the login form, otherwise, they're logged in and you can perform a redirect:

if (Request.UrlReferrer != null && !Request.UrlReferrer.AbsolutePath.IsNullOrWhiteSpace())
{
    Response.Redirect(Request.UrlReferrer.AbsolutePath);
}
else
{
    Response.Redirect("/");
}

This checks to see if there was a referrer set, if so, redirects to that page, otherwise redirects off to the homepage.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, works perfect.

Odd "default" behaviour though, but hey ho!

is working on a reply...
