This module controls where users go after logging in. You can configure login destination on a settings page. It will be either static URL or a PHP snippet evaluating your own site’s logic. You can also configure which pages redirection is applied. To achieve this you can specify either a list of URLs or a PHP snippet to build this list dynamically. So, you can redirect user to various pages depending on which pages they are logging from. You can also use alias URLs instead of internal paths.

Basic Usage

I ran into a situation recently where I needed to have the users directed to a specific page that I created once they logged in! I used the Taxonomy Lite module to restrict this page to the outside world and give only users of the site permission to see this page. This module made it so easy to make this happen. All I did was upload and install the module, then go to the new Login Destination menu item under User Management in the admin area. The page looks like this:

As you can see, the “URL” box allows me to place the url of the page that I want my users directed to upon login. You can get even more crazy with this module with Redirection conditions settings as you can see. But in my case I did not even need that at all.
