7558	wp-login $redirect_to breaks tinyMCE under SSL	bitethemailman	anonymous	"SSL logins use https URLs that break the pre-initalization sequence for tinyMCE. once a login is successful, the redirect uses a shorthand URL leading to the dashboard. this shorthand fails to remove the ""S"" from the ""https"". 

The problem went something like this: when a user tried to view a popup window in tinyMCE, a blank popup would appear, and the error console (oh, glorious firebug and safari consoles) would display a confusing version of a javascript security warning, saying that it refused to pull up a non-secured function from a secure requesting URL. The fix is as follows.

In version 2.5, wp-login.php edits:

line 347 old: 

{{{
$redirect_to = 'wp-admin/';
}}}

CHANGE TO:
{{{
$redirect_to = get_option('siteurl') . '/wp-admin/';
}}}

don't miss the new leading slash.
Hope this helps!
