Account Creation
Quote from Apollo127x on August 21, 2018, 6:27 pmI recently installed the Asgaros Forum on my wordpress site that is also running woocommerce. I am having an issue where when someone registers a forum account after they check their email and set their password, when they log in they are automatically redirected to the my-account page from Woocommerce which shows recent orders and other irrelevant things for someone creating a account for the forums.
My work around currently is a redirect I have set so when someone logins in for the first time they are redirected to the forum page rather then the my account page. I’m worried this will cause issues if someone tries to create a account while using woocommerce, since both plugins use the wordpress users. Is there a better work around for this so when someone registers a forum account they aren’t brought to the woocommerce my-account page?
Thanks!

Asgaros Forum uses the default registration-logic of WordPress. I guess that WooCommerce is doing the same. It seems that WooCommerce overwrites the default redirect-behavior of WordPress so a user lands on this page.
I guess it would be the best to ask the developer of WooCommerce on how to disable this redirect if registrations are made outside of WooCommerce. I dont want to integrate my own redirect-rules for the forum because it can lead to unwanted behavior – for example if a website uses its own login/registration management.
