Logging in from menu item goes to a weird looking page

Logging in from menu item goes to a weird looking page was created by bettyd
Hi, if a user logs in from the login page (gotten to by clicking on the CB-login menu item) the result is a very sparse, weird looking page. Is there any way I can have this method of login go to their profile instead? There is no way to set the redirect for the CB-login menu item, just the module.
See attached photos.

The login page uses the parameters of the first CB Login module it finds that is available to the viewing user. So it should use your login module login redirect perfectly fine, but you likely have more than 1 CB Login module and it's using that other one.

I have only one login module, and I need to leave the redirect field empty because we like that default setting of taking a user back to the page they were trying to access.

Since the cb-login page is essentially and empty page, it would make sense to redirect to the profile or index.php if the module redirect field is left empty (ie. in default setting).

Is it possible to override the file that handles this?

Create a second login module. First one will be used for the login page when directly accessed via menu item and second one will be used for actual display in module positions. This will let you set a login redirect URL just for the menu usage in your first login module.
