I was going to make a mod for it, but due to lack of time I decided to postpone it.

Anyway, here is what you should do to achive what you need. It is only a small edit.

The file you need is Register.php in the /Sources/ directory

Find the part where the function Activate() is called.

Code Select Expand

function Activate()
{
    global $db_prefix, $context, $txt, $modSettings, $scripturl, $sourcedir;

After that add:

Code Select Expand

$_SESSION['login_url'] = 'here the url where you want to redirect your members';


That was it. And as always don''t forget to backup first the file before applying the changes and to use a decent php editor program 

If you are uncomfortable with editing the file, then upload it here and I will make the edits for you

thanks sorry    
but this will work only after the user has activated? that is, I want it appears that only the first time after receiving the email to activate and click on the link and entering makes him see the rules or the post

That is exactly what this does. After the users activate their account, they will be redirected immediately to where you want them. Only that first time, for the rest not, just like you asked. It has been tested several times on test and live forums alike and it works flawless.

That is a nice mod, but does it work for the users that activate their accounts for the first time, as the op asked? Because from what I could read at the mod description it is only for normal users when they log in and not when the new users activate their account.

[Eliana Tamerin]

When new users log in, they get redirected, just like any other users. When they activate their accounts, they're automatically logged in, and thus redirected to the topic.

I just tested your mod out of curiosity and as I suspected it doesn''t work for this. It worked fine to redirect users to a topic of admin''s choise upon logging in but not when the new users activated their accounts from their emails.

[Eliana Tamerin]

It should, because that should be counted as the first time they login.

I don''t know about that. As I said I tested it several times and it didn''t work for that. Look, I don''t want to argue with you or anything like that

I am merely pointing out that your mod doesn''t work for what the OP has in mind. But you can test it out for yourself, don''t take my word for it

I'll do that, I've added it as a bug for my mod. Thanks for finding that.

I have applied this mod and it does not work. Any ideas? I have tried it on version 1.1.5 and 1.1.6 with the same result - nothing happens.

Use the suggestion I posted in my first post.
