Default screen when logged in to opac account
Hello, When our patrons login to their account in the opac they are brought to our opac homepage, i.e. the search screen. In order to see their summary/checkouts they need to click on their name on the top right-hand side of the screen. This is causing confusion as they often don't know to click on their name. Is there any way to force the screen to go to their summary/checkouts as soon as they log in? Thank you, Claire Fox Dundalk Institute of Technology Dundalk, Co. Louth, Ireland.

Hi Claire It looks like you are using Shibboleth with Koha? May be obvious, but it must be something in that setup that redirecting users to the search page. Ordinarily, in Koha a user logs in and is redirected to /cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl, their account.

I have created a separate login button in the OPAC header that points directly to the opac-user.pl page. I hide the two default login spots for multiple reasons but mostly to accomplish what you are looking for.
