• We created a new Advanced Setting named force_product_settings_login_redirect.  From the setting's description: "Enter a comma separated list of pages (/login,/about,etc) where if a member logs in from those pages, they will always be redirected to the page defined in their membership level setting. Otherwise, after logging in from any other pages, the current page will refresh after logging in so that the member remains on the current page. TIP: Leave empty for all logins to always redirect to the membership level redirect page. Use "/login" to ALWAYS refresh the current page and never redirect user to their login redirect page."
