Thanks ! I spend some more time wrestling with this, and expanding my knowledge of this feature of web2py, which I enjoy doing.
*GOOD NEWS*, I finally got it to work, on a simple web2py app. - just by adding 2 lines in the right place. (copy of working code below) Now, I'm not sure if a "bug" exists, I only know that if I add auth.navbar(referrer_actions=None) The behavior I want will not work (ie redirect to user/profile page, after successful login). Anthony, if it looks like a bug to you, I would be happy to submit a bug, and do whatever testing that would be helpful to this excellent community of web2py users. Sure appreciate the help.
