Redirect After Login with Nginx

[hyperdude (Alan Son)]

After migrating my site to an Ngnix server the Redirect After Login does not work. Any ideas or workarounds that I can try?

Looking at the log I see that the redirect to is blank.

[_pmr] => Array

In my experience s2 isn’t too friendly with NGINX.

I host all my sites on Amazon hosting with an Aurora DB, but s2 threw an error until I figured it out.

Not your error, but still NGINX (and super trellis/ansible)

s2Member + Trellis/Bedrock

I'm so happy to see you back, Cristián. You were the main support in my early days with s2 and you helped me lots over on the old forum and support requests. I was literally just a few days form migrating to PMP when you showed up. I could probably come up with hundreds of feature or support requests, but I want to start with this one. I use Trellis to deploy all of my sites except for the ones that use s2Member. I haven't tested for over a year, so my memory's foggy, but the s2 code hasn…

I’m confident @clavaque will solve all of the concerns, but it’s all based on priority. Darn EU and PSD2. Then there’s U.S. sales tax. Sheesh. Poor @clavaque

BTW I used to use this service for setting up any new WP VPS.

https://serverpilot.io/

They install Apache behind NGINX so you (kind of because there’s a performance hit) get the best of both worlds.

They used to have a free tier, but folks on GitHub released code to give all the premium features and the pricing changed.

I still have some grandfathered sites on the old (free) pricing, but all my new stuff is on Trellis (see above), but I haven’t launched a new s2 site for a minute.

I seem to have found a solution. I had to create a file as instructed in this document https://s2member.com/kb-article/auto-login-on-registration/

It now redirects on registration as expected.

Why it does not work as part of the default plugin I have no idea?
