confirmRegister logs new registered user in as anonymous?

New users get registered as expected and confirmation email is sent. On confirmation page i have

where id 18 is the update profile [[!UpdateProfile]] page, this page belongs to the usergroup that the newly registered user belongs to. However the ConfirmRegister snippet logs the user in as an "anonymous" user. Is this the default behaviour?

The newly register user is created fine and if logs out (from anonymous) and then logs in all is fine. But this is not the desired behaviour.

modx 2.2.0-pl2

Hello

I've this behaviour too... Seems to be a bug, it has been reported in other posts in the forum...

My workaround at the moment: set authenticate to 0, put a link to 'First identification on the site' on my confirmRegister page... In the "First identification page" a basic Login call....

Not ideal but it works...
Cheers
