The K2 Contributor Login Redirect component from CorFun lets you direct contributors to specific pages when they login to your K2-powered group blog site.  Define a default URL for any user signing in belonging to a K2 User Group that does not have a specific URL set up in the component. Then define URLs for all desired K2 User Groups so that you can pick what URL each type of contributor sees when logging in via K2. If you don't assign a User Group to a specific URL, then members of that group will go to the Default URL when logging in. K2 Contributor Login Redirect has been available for Joomla 1.5 for quite some time. We are now pleased to announce its port to the Joomla 1.7 platform and to the latest development release of K2!

Joomla 1.7 is here! SOBIPro and Virtuemart 2.0 are coming soon. In honor of the changing landscape for Joomla software, CorFun is pleased to announce our Summer Sale! Most of our Joomla extensions are on sale 50% off their original prices. The sale includes extensions for both 1.7 and 1.5, so don’t miss out! Sale ends August 31^st, 2011.

CorFun, Inc. has been making extensive use of the K2 Joomla component in our client projects for all kinds of things from catalogs to blogs to community sites. One of K2's greatest strengths is the ability to assign users to customizable User Groups. This is a great capability, but did have one limitation. When users log in, it is often desired to route them to specific pages based on their User Groups.
