Great job Kyle!

will this plugin affect redirecting a member back to an article after they log in if they were not logged in when they attempted to view it?

Yup. Tested and confirmed using a menu link. Test case was menu link is set to Registered, attempted to access it, was sent to CB login, logged in, was redirected back to menu link. The plugin will properly take the return URL that Joomla passes to Joomlas login module and instead passes it to CB by way of javascript (this will populate the login form on the login page and any login modules also displayed). In addition to that it'll rewrite all Joomla URLs leading to com_users (that use Joomlas API) to point to CB instead and effectively closing backdoor login/registration (if someone forgets to disable it).

I was asking if the plugin would interfere (negatively) but I think you're telling me that the plugin will correctly redirect a user back to a registered article if they attempted to view it while not being logged in.

First of all, thanks for this great plugin!!
Just got one problem: It will not take me to a "registered" menu link again after login.
When linking to a registered menu link it takes me to cb login (which it should). But after login it redirects me to homepage instead.

Do you have any clue how to fix this Kyle?

Best Regards

Correct.

Nope, should be working fine; works fine in all my tests. Ensure you've nothing else installed that could be performing a redirect. It takes the URL that Joomla login has stored in its API, but if there's nothing there then it can't redirect anywhere. Login redirect will of course override this for example if your login module has a redirect specified.
