Heiya,

on a wiki I unsuccessfully try to return users to the very page they started out with their user registration by adding: |

[{{fullurl:Special:UserLogin/signup|returnto={{FULLPAGENAMEE}}}} ''Login'' to this wiki (and come back here)]|.

So what happens: After registration the user stays on "Special:UserLogin" showing "Welcome, username" and below some other included system messages together with a link "Return to 'the page you last visited'". So there is no direct return to the original page.

On e.g. German Wikipedia I get directly to the original page. Does anyone know the trick to get MW obeying the "returnto" parameter instead of ignoring like described? I will document this as soon as the trick in know to me.

Thanks and cheers

Karsten
