Sorry maybe I did not explain correctly
When the users come to the page they are not immediately logged in.

I use this
$wgHooks['SkinBuildSidebar'][] = 'lfHideSidebar';
function lfHideSidebar( $skin, &$bar ) {
        global $wgUser;
        // Hide sidebar for anonymous users
        if ( !$wgUser->isLoggedIn() ) {
                $bar = array(
                        'navigation' => array(
                                array(
                                        'text'   => wfMsg( 'login' ),
                                        'href'   => SpecialPage::getTitleFor( 
'Login' )->getLocalURL(),
                                        'id'     => 'n-login',
                                        'active' => ''
                                )
                        )
                );
        }
        return true;
}

And if someone goes to a page before they login and select login they are 
returned to the home page.

Can I get the returnto, to work with this hook?

Because you're already logged in, so MediaWiki helpfully skips the login form. 
This behavior was changed again in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/161465/ 
(allowing you to view the form and displaying appropriate message, as seen on 
Wikimedia wikis), but that patch didn't make the 1.24 release.
