Is it possible to use another auto-login with Chronoforms?

I am using TCVN Auto Login, and it works great, sending newly registered users to a landing page.
The problem is that it seems to then bypass the Chronoforms "Joomla Registration -> on success" actions.

Is there a way to easily integrate an auto-login plugin with Chronoforms?

(I will attach a screenshot if the forum lets me of the Chronoforms setup with the actions highlighted in yellow that do not run on registration success. You'll notice that I also had to move the writing to the DB before the registration action to get around this).

If the solution is that I need to use the auto-login feature of Chronoforms, is there a good way to direct that to a specific page?

Thanks, and really enjoying Chronoforms!

Hi Erik,

Looking at the code it seems as though CF calls the Joomla! login method so my guess is that that triggers the other plug-in by calling the onUserLogin and onAfterUserLogin

The only way I can think of round this would be to have your own login code - maybe over-ride the Joomla! class and comment out the plug-in calls. There doesn't seem to be any option to control them (though I guess you could add a new option to do that.

Why not just use a "Redirect" action in the Joomla registration on success event instead of using "TCVN Auto Login" ?

Hi Max,

I'm guessing that not all Logins are done through the Registration form.
