Login and going back to previous section - El Forum - 03-12-2012

I have my login section in my header. I want my user to login and go back to the page from which he logged in.
How can I achieve that?

It's pretty simply!
Add a hidden field to your login form which stores the URL of the current page. After validating the user's credentials, check for this post-field and simply redirect him.

I recommend use Flashdata in protected sections to storing uri, so when the user is logged correctly you can redirect recovery flash data.
