Description (last modified by holasoftware)

In the method 

    def login(self, request, extra_context=None):

of the class AdminSite, these lines have to removed:

        if (
            REDIRECT_FIELD_NAME not in request.GET
            and REDIRECT_FIELD_NAME not in request.POST
        ):
            context[REDIRECT_FIELD_NAME] = reverse("admin:index", current_app=self.name)

​https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/contrib/admin/sites.py#L431-L435

Otherwise the setting 

    LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL

has no effect.

Summary: LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL has no effect. → LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL has no effect in admin

I think it's intended behavior. While the admin login does use LoginView, the setting isn't meant to apply there. You shouldn't use the admin's login page for non-admin purposes.
