Where to set redirect after login in Joomla + JomSocial:
- Joomla Login Module (mod_login or other login modules):
Go to: Extensions → Modules
Search for your Login Module (e.g. "mod_login", "JS Hello Me", or custom one)
Click it to edit
Look for:
Login Redirection Page
Logout Redirection Page
Set Login Redirection Page to the JomSocial wall or the page you want (e.g. /index.php?option=com_community&view=frontpage)
✳️ If you're using menu items, better to select a specific menu item from the dropdown (the one that links to JomSocial's frontpage).
Or
- JomSocial Configuration (to override global):
Go to: Components → JomSocial → Configuration
Click the General tab (top left)
Scroll to section Redirects
You’ll see:
After Login Redirect – set this to Frontpage or the specific URL (index.php?option=com_community&view=frontpage)
After Logout Redirect
✅ This JomSocial setting usually overrides Joomla's if both exist — especially if the login is triggered through JomSocial modules or components like JS Hello Me.
⚠️ Pro Tip:
If the user is logging in from multiple entry points (mod_login, JS Hello Me, 3rd party SSO), etc.
Make sure all relevant login modules have the redirect set, and that no plugin (e.g. authentication plugin) is overriding it.
