Continuing the discussion from [Compose a new pre-filled topic via URL](https://meta.discourse.org/t/compose-a-new-pre-filled-topic-via-url/28074/14): > [@Creating a link to start a new topic with pre-filled information](https://meta.discourse.org/t/creating-a-link-to-start-a-new-topic-with-pre-filled-information/28074/14): > > Should be fixed via: > > [FIX: new-topic URL should survive login redirection · discourse/discourse@d1632c1 · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/d1632c1dbd256411bbb348f638bb7f5f61f05eae) @techAPJ I was just exploring the new topic url and just tried clicking on a new topic url when not logged in - it then asks you to login which is great, however, after you are logged in you just go to front page - not to the new content window. So I don’t think this is fixed yet. As something else changed that makes the session variable not hold? ---

I just tried visiting this URL when not logged in – [Discourse Meta](https://meta.discourse.org/new-topic?title=topic%20title&body=topic%20body&category=support/wordpress) The feature is working as expected for me, as soon as I provided my credentials, the pre-filled composer opened. ---

Are you referring to SSO or regular login? Can you repro on [try.discourse.org](http://try.discourse.org)? ---

I had only tried sso (github and facebook if it matters…) - which does not work - a regular login does. I think I understand some of the complexity of this with sso logins, but this type of functionality would be awesome for my site at least. Is it possible with sso? Oh, and I reproduced this on my site and on meta, but try. is not responding right now so I couldn’t try it there… ---

Just an update try. wasn’t down it just doesn’t work with https and you get a connection refused error… Either way, with that figured out I tried this on try. just now with > **[Discourse Demo](https://try.discourse.org/new-topic?title=topic%20title&body=topic%20body&category=discourse)** > > Demonstration sandbox for Discourse and it doesn’t work there either with sso… ---

Try does not use SSO. Can you repro this @techapj? ---

> [@yyhmsg](#): > > (github and facebook if it matters…) - which does not work I understand your issue now. I can confirm that this feature is not working when logging in via social login method (Google/Twitter/Facebook). ~~Working on a fix now.~~ Fixed via: [https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/ad98f270c925e7cbdfdf7d7687605b49656503b6](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/ad98f270c925e7cbdfdf7d7687605b49656503b6) Thanks for reporting this @yyhmsg 💝 ---

Awesome! Thanks for the quick fix! I’ll give it a shot at the next update of my site. ---
