We have a discourse setup with the following configuration

- Settings - Top Menu → categories, latest
- Wizard ([https://site/wizard/steps/homepage](https://site/wizard/steps/homepage)) - Categories boxes
- Site is public

When the site is accessed as [https://sitename](https://sitename), it is correctly redirecting to Categories Page.

**Looks like a Bug** - When the site is accessed as [https://sitename/login](https://sitename/login), it is auto redirecting to [https://sitename/latest](https://sitename/latest) before showing the login modal.

**Expected** - When the site is accessed as [https://sitename/login](https://sitename/login), it should redirect to [https://sitename](https://sitename) or [https://sitename/categories](https://sitename/categories) before showing the login modal.

If it is not a bug, kindly guide how to implement the expected scenario via a plugin

That does sound like a bug, can you repro @jomaxro?

Yep, confirmed the unexpected redirect when accessing via `/login`. Thanks for the clear repro steps @gingerman!

Should be fixed by:
