Hey there,

I have noticed that when “Sign-in with Shop” is enabled, it looks like it overrides the “return_to” value of the theme’s sign-in form. For example, while this would normally redirect to the home page after signing in: {% form 'customer_login', return_to: '/' %}, it looks like when customers sign in with Shop it always redirects them to the /account page instead of the page specified in the return_to parameter of the “customer_login” form. Is this true? And if so is it something that can be fixed?

Thanks!
