I thought I could use the following code:

<a href="user/login?destination=<?php print token_replace('[current-page:url]'); ?>a link</a>

to redirect users to the page they were on after log in, but it doesn't seem to work.

I can see the correct url on the login page, e.g.:

mysite/user/login?destination=the url of the page I was on

but when I login I am still redirected to mysite/users/my user name.

If you want to Redirect to previous drupal page after login, you can try this.

print l("Login","user/login",array('query' => drupal_get_destination()));

see drupal_get_destination

  • Top tip, thanks, but actually my 'link' is an image... how would I call the image instead of the "Login" text?

  • thanks @nikhil-m I found out that you can put an image in a l() by using 'html' => true, Thanks to api.drupal.org/api/drupal/includes!common.inc/function/l/7 so what i ended up with is: print l('<img src="path-to-image.png" title="A title here">',"user/login",array('query' => drupal_get_destination(), 'html' => true, ));

You can use Token Filter module and the following code should work:

<a href="user/login?destination=[site:current-page:path]">a link</a>

Make sure that the token filter is available in the text format you are using.
