Question

How can I redirect different user groups to different pages in Magento ?

what I want to do is to assign a category to each customer group to redirect the user to it on login.

Thanks a lot.

How about this for an approach:

Consider starting with an existing module such as:

http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/MagePsycho/extension/3763/custom_login_redirect

Then adding your own logic. For the group name of a customer you can try this:

$groupId = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session')->getCustomerGroupId();

$group = Mage::getModel ('customer/group')->load($groupId)->getCode();

If you then have your categories named as per your groups you can do a redirect to http:// + base_url + $group therfore removing the need to explicitly work out what category page to load.
