    I tried this tonight and Jetpack comes up with some fatal error about the user not having authorization to access that directory or something. Looks bad and causes the user to have to reload the screen, redirecting them to my home screen and thus negating the need for the feature to be turned on. It was supposed to be redirecting the new user to…

    http://www.goodintoday.com/people/USERNAME/messages/inbox

    so that they could read the welcome letter that explains the site a bit to them. Instead the page it attempted to access that caused Jetpack to get all mad was…

    http://www.goodintoday.com/wp-admin/

    now we all know what screen that is and obviously normal users can’t access it. But one of these address’s doesn’t look like the other and I’m not really sure why the redirect tried to send them into the back-end of my site rather than where I’d asked. Any clues or suggestions here?

    Even without the redirect, by the way, I love your Plug-In. The personalization level is outstanding. New users automagically receiving a new friend request and a shiny new e-mail from me as soon as they log in, I absolutely love it! :)

    Hey, thanks. I don’t use Jetpack, so I’ll check it out with Welcome Pack when I get a chance. What other plugins are you using?
