Blush Oops, sorry about that...I thought I had included the question:

I was wondering if there is any way to have a user automatically logged in after they successfully signup for the forum. Currently, after signing up, it confirms the signup and then asks the user to log in. I was hoping there would be a way to automatically log them in after a successful signup...

No worries =)

I believe you have to log in, after the account is validated (just put a link to the login page). AFAIK, its not possible to automatically make it login :(

Thanks Andy. I couldn't find a way either. I like to have things very simple and quick for users, so if they signup and are activated, it would be nice to just have them automatically logged in and ready to go, rather than adding the additional step to log in. But I suppose this could be considered a security issue of sorts...

Hi,

Community does this, but Gossamer Forum doesn't right now.

Cheers,

Alex
