# Automatic login after Member Signup

*Article Topics:* [*Sites*](/getting-started/common-topics/sites.md)*,* [*Tours*](/getting-started/common-topics/tours.md)*,* [*Member Area*](/getting-started/common-topics/member-area.md)*,* [*Members*](/getting-started/common-topics/members.md)*,* [*Site Templates*](/getting-started/common-topics/templates.md)

In this article, we'll walk through how to set up automatic login after a new member completes a signup.

This greatly improves the user experience by eliminating the need for a newly registered member to manually log in after signing up.

## Setting up Approval URL

1. Navigate to the [Sites Admin](/nats-admin/sites.md), select your site, then your tour, and navigate to the **Pages/Steps** tab
2. Point the **Redirect-Approval URL** to your Member Area URL.
3. Append the query parameter:

```
?pkce_cms_area_id=YOUR_MEMBERS_AREA_ID
```

Replace **YOUR\_MEMBERS\_AREA\_ID** with the actual members area ID found on the [General tab of your Member Area](/content-management/member-areas-and-tours/member-area-and-tour-details.md#general-tab).

This ensures that after signup approval, the member is redirected correctly.
