Hi,
I was under the impression that Auth would redirect to the controller
and action they were trying to access before being redirected to the
login page.
If I specify a redirect will it apply to all controllers/actions using
Auth,
e.g. If I set the Auth redirect to "accounts/view" then someone
logging in from "discussions/new" is going to be redirected to
"accounts/view" rather than "discussions/new".
I'm not really sure how that all works, so sorry if that makes no
sense.
