Hi Alex,

When I login using my Joomla credentials, I am redirected to [my site]?Itemid=1, which throws a 404 error. When I then hit the back button on my browser, I return to the home page where I logged in and I am in fact logged in. I see this as a redirection error.

How do I redirect to a particular page?

Here are my configurations:

JFBConnect (version 5.0.0) and JLinked (2.0.0) are both installed and enabled
SCLogin enabled and all other login modules are disabled
Joomla 2.5.11
I am NOT using either my Facebook or LinkedIn credentials but the credentials for a Joomla login I created before installing your two components
I have tried configuring the SCLogin module to use first the JomSocial and then the Joomla registration components with no success and identical results (404 Error). (I set the Joomla redirection to an existing page in the SCLogin component when using the Joomla registration component and set the JomSocial redirection in JomSocial when using the JomSocial registration component, neither with any success.)

In the SCLogin module and the JFBConnect Configuration area, make sure that your "Login redirection URLs" are:
* To a 'real' menu item, and not to an alias or external link
* Not set to "menu_item_root"

Beyond that, the SCLogin module actually uses Joomla to perform the login. If you're entering the normal Joomla username/password and being redirected wrong, it may be something else like an SEF extension causing the problems. Do you have the same problem if you use the mod_login (standard Joomla login) module? If so, that would indicate it's not a JFBConnect issue at all.

Hope that helps,
Alex
