Keep same page when logging in and not redirect to newsfeed

A suggestion: If you get automatically signed out, and then want to sign in and stay on the same page as you were, it doesn't work. It takes you back to the newsfeed.

We need to have a way where once we log in we aren't redirected and keep on the same page we were looking it before signing in.

The system does not differentiate a log out and a session timed out. I understand what you mean having to find your way back.
