How to redirect new customer accounts to main store instead of orders page?

[matoow]

I'd prefer to use the 'New Customer Accounts', as it dispenses with a password..

I want to redirect the customer back to the main store, or the previous page, but definitely not to '/account/orders' page.

Is there any way to do this?

I apologise for reposting this question, as it's clearly been asked before, but not answered as far as I can tell.

Some useful pages:-

No, we reverted to old style accounts.

Here is from Shopify support:

Unfortunately, with the new customer accounts feature, Shopify does not currently support custom redirection to stay on the same page after login. The new customer accounts feature always redirects customers to the account overview page after login.


Basically they forget to mention that new customer accounts *DOES NOT SUPPORT* having a general log in link on your site that allows customers to log in while browsing.

Just checking if anyone has found a solution for this yet when using Shopify's new customer accounts feature
