Problem/Motivation
The default front page field description says: "Optionally, specify a relative URL to display as the front page. Leave blank to display the default front page." But if left blank, the front page redirects to /user, not /node (which is the default front page).
Proposed resolution
Either update the description to reflect the actual behaviour, or update the behaviour to show the default front page if this value is not set.
Remaining tasks
- Decide which option to go with - change text or change behaviour
- Implement the change
User interface changes
API changes
Data model changes
Release notes snippet
Original IS
I just installed D8, but when I try to reach the Front Page as an authenticated user, I got immediately redirected (302) to the user page. As a anonymous user, it works as expected.
I do not know exactly what additional data I should provide for debugging this issue, but will happly provided any information I can.
