Hi all,

I have a custom (not CreateUserWizard) webform that lets a user sign up for an account, once signed up the user is redirected to a welcome page where, if they want a full account, they are encouraged to pay up. The problem I've noticed is that immediately after signing up the user isn't automatically logged in as I want them to be when arriving on the welcome page. I tried using FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage static method and although this does indeed log the person in it messes other things up. In other words I don’t want existing users being redirected to the welcome and pay up page every time they log in, I only want this for new users immediately after signing up. So I suppose my question is can a user be logged in without using FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage, and if so how?

If anyone has any other ideas on how to do this please let me know.

Thanks

Please ignore this question as I've managed to get the answer elsewhere. Thanks.
