ok i fixed this by editing sidebarlogin.js and adding

result1 = window.location.reload(true)

In the following location

if (result==’SBL_SUCCESS’ || result.indexOf( ‘SBL_SUCCESS’ ) > 0) {
window.location = jQuery(‘.redirect_to:eq(0)’, thisform).attr(‘value’);
// The next line forces refresh of the page
result1 = window.location.reload(true)

Hope this helps someone else. If I’ve done something bad let me know!

tried changing it to just window.location.reload() but still no dice in chrome 🙁

all other browsers listed works ok!
