[SiNaN]:
Great mod Eliana. Good luck with it.

SgtMic:

Have a look at this tip:

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=257308.0

F.L.A.M.E.R:

No, you can redirect to the topic only.

Maybe Eliana will include these two features in the further releases.

(F.L.A.M.E.R):
hmm ok.. try it if you can... its actually a very useful mod... Thank you Eliana for this wonderful mod.

Kimmie:
Once the topic has been read by someone, will they keep getting redirected to it every time they log in? If so, maybe it can be incorporated to make it to where once someone has "replied" to the topic they will no longer have to be redirected to it - such as a Rules topic. 

And does this exclude staff?

Edit: I saw the note on the features and options page where it indicates "if they haven't read it before" so that answered my above questions - However - I installed this, set it up for a specific topic, logged in with a test account that has not read that topic yet, and it did not redirect me. It went straight to the Main page (which is TP). I tried adding the ".0" at the end thinking that was the problem, however when I saved the setting, it just reverted back the topic # without the .0.

Is there some place else it has to be turned on?

(F.L.A.M.E.R):
Hey just one more addition in this if possbile. Can you keep some setting that the users should be redirect or have a popup page (flash Message which owner wants) to be displayed for the 1st some days... (like 3-7) would be a kool thing to do...

Eliana Tamerin:
Wow, lots of comments.

@SgtMic
Will keep that in mind for a future version. Until then, you can use [SiNaN]'s trick.

@F.L.A.M.E.R
To a specific message: No it doesn't. I could do that in the future, possibly.
Repeated redirect: I think that would probably get annoying. It's probably possible, but once they've read it, why do they need to read it again?

@Kimmie
Nope, it will check if the person has read it and only redirect if they have not yet read it. It also checks if a user has access to the topic, so users won't get redirected to a topic they can't see.
