How can I re-direct from login module into user profile without having the profile menu(though its mandatory).. is there a way?
I am using joomla 1.5
thank you all
The need for the mandatory menu item has nothing to do with the redirect question.
Every Joomla component needs an item id.
The item id is assigned by creating a menu item pointing to the component.
The fact the the CB component can be accessed by public users (non logged in) means that the MANDATORY menu item needs to be public.
Now please follow the free instructions already provided to you.
Create a mandatory PUBLIC menu item to the CB component as instructed.
If you do not want the menu item shown just put it in a menu you have published in a non template supported position.
Now if you want your CB Login module to always redirect users to their profile after login, just redirect to:
index.php?option=com_comprofiler&Itemid=1 (replace Itemid=1 by the same Itemid as your profile menu)
(btw - last bit of information is also provided in your CB Configuration -> Registration tab as help instructions for URL for first login visit parameter).
