We created a site that only invited account members are able to join. The admins will add a new user through a front-end dashboard. We're using eeHarbor User's {exp:user:register} tag.

The activation email is successfully sent and once they activate, by default they get a user message "Your account has been activate. You can now log in and begin using it" and a link to the homepage. According to the member settings field description, this redirect should override this message.

In the Member Settings control panel (/cp/settings/members) neither the "auto-login upon activation" or the template path for the redirection upon activation are override the system message.

For the time being, we're having to add users in the EE backend and manually send them a welcome email which is not ideal.

How To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Verified Activation Redirect URL entered properly (/cp/settings/members)
2. Log into our app dashboard
3. Create new account using {exp:user:register}
4. Add name (screen_name) and email (using email for both username and email)
5. Activation email sent
6. Activation link clicked (example link: /?ACT=72&id=MczJfjVCFv)
7. Shows basic message
