| I think maybe the OP just didn't understand how to make that Vlogin
| setting.

That is absolutely correct!

| If so, what it is telling you to do is add an entry to your
| $virtualDomains array with the name "login_redirect_custom_login_URI"
| and the value that points to the custom page that you created for
| them.

Does this require that the "login_redirect" plugin be installed? I did 
not understand how I can use login_redirect_custom_login_URI within
vlogin/data/config.php when no such thing is defined as a global 
variable.


| I think you can get away with only adding it to the problematic
| domain.

Your further advise is most appreciated.
