Redirect to specific page after account confirmation email

[NickMercy]

Hi there,

i have this link in my account confirmation to activate my account.

<a href="{{ customer.account_activation_url }}"
after the account gets activated i want it to redirect to the home page. How do I do this?

Thank you.

Hi @NickMercy,

Just to confirm, you added the code under Settings > Notifications > "Customer account invite".

Is that correct?

Knowing this helps me better assist you with your inquiry.

Feel free to ask any further questions you have about this setting or anything else related to Shopify.

Best regards,

Great,
There only replace the code with

{% if customer %}
  <p>Click the link below to activate your account:</p>
  <a href="{{ customer.account_activation_url }}" id="activation-link">Activate your account</a>
  <script>
    document.getElementById('activation-link').addEventListener('click', function() {
      setTimeout(function() {
        window.location.href = "{{ shop.url }}";
      }, 5000); // Redirect to the home page after 5 seconds adjust accordingly
    });
  </script>
{% endif %}

Hi there,

      {% if customer %}
  <a href="{{ customer.account_activation_url }}" id="activation-link" target="_blank" style="background-color: #7e287f; color: white; padding: 14px 25px; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; display: inline-block; border-radius:8px; font-weight:600; margin-top:15px; margin-bottom:15px;">Activate your account</a>
  <script>
    document.getElementById('activation-link').addEventListener('click', function() {
      setTimeout(function() {
        window.location.href = "{{ shop.url }}";
      }, 1000); // Redirect to the home page after 5 seconds adjust accordingly
    });
  </script>
{% endif %}

it does not seem to be working for me. Any ideas why? 

thanks for the help.
