Thanks Rasheed, I just watched the video. The problem with that method is that it still doesn’t redirect you to the dashboard or homepage after signing in. After sign in, it remains in that page, so the user doesn’t even know that he is signed in, unless he goes back to the homepage or dashboard to check. It’s not very good UX, and frankly, it’s hard to explain this to every user that comes on the site, without sounding very unprofessional. Most users will prefer to stop using the platform altogether.
If you can’t make it so that the sign in prompt pops up on the homepage, once you click on the Login button, at least make it so that once you’ve signed in, like in the video, it takes you back to the homepage. Thanks. I can see that your team has put in a lot of effort into this. I just need it to be as easy for my students as possible.
