I’m trying to have new registrations upon submission be redirected to
```
https://elyite.com/registration-confirmation/
```
It appears the Registration Redirect only works when the UserWP Registration Action is set to “Auto approve + Auto login” and not simply “Auto approve” which is confusing from a usability perspective when you are onboarding new registrants and want to direct them to “Claim” their listing upon auto approval registration.

What am I doing wrong? Please advise.

That is correct, you will need to set it to Auto approve + Auto login
Otherwise they will be given a notice to login.

I want them to login in. The auto login makes no sense as the user doesn’t understand what just happened and tracking the event becomes that much more challenging.

If this is the core functionality then I will redesign the Registration Confirmation page to inform the new user that they are now logged in and may proceed to Claim their listing.

Please consider changing that functionality so that we are always putting the users needs first. Not engineering first!

Since I’m on a rant this seems to be a common issue with GD and the myriad of Plugins required to make everything work for a user.

I respectfully challenge the core team to consider user functionality first when developing or refining any GD updates and or the supporting plugins.

This is my revised Registration Confirmation page.

This then directs the newly registered user to go a claim their listing while also opening up the page to add up-sells and notices while simplifying goal tracking.

Hopefully this helps others.

Thanks for the feedback, Richard. We appreciate it and will take it into account as we look at what’s next for the integration between UsersWP and GeoDirectory.

Hi Richard,

We have provided a filter to use for force redirect the user to a page after registration. Here is the code you can put in your functions.php of current theme or create a snippet if you are using Code Snippets plugin:
```
add_filter('uwp_registration_force_redirect', 'uwp_registration_force_redirect_cb');
function uwp_registration_force_redirect_cb(){
    return true;
}
```
Let me know if this resolves your problem or not.

Regards,
Patrik
