I'm not sure if this is the officially correct way to do this, but I
implemented this functionality by making a change to layout.html:
I replaced these lines:
- {{=A(T('login'),_href=URL(r=request,c='default',f='user/login'))}} |
- {{=A(T('register'),_href=URL(r=request,c='default',f='user/
register'))}} ]
With these lines:
+ {{=A(T('login'),_href=URL(r=request,c='default',f='user/login?_next=
%s' % request.url))}} |
+ {{=A(T('register'),_href=URL(r=request,c='default',f='user/register?
_next=%s' % request.url))}} ]
This works because before web2py checks auth.settings.login_next it
checks the POST and GET variables to see if the variable '_next' is
included. I have a very simple site right now, so I don't know how
well this will work for you. For example, it does not maintain the
query string from the current URL (ie, ?var1=value1&var2=value2,
etc). You can probably tweak this to provide that functionality,
though.
