Answer 1

you should have this code in you site/controller

/**
 * Displays the login page
 */
public function actionLogin()
{
    $model=new LoginForm;

    // if it is ajax validation request
    if(isset($_POST['ajax']) && $_POST['ajax']==='login-form')
    {   
        echo CActiveForm::validate($model);
        Yii::app()->end();
    }

    // collect user input data
    if(isset($_POST['LoginForm']))
    {
        $model->attributes=$_POST['LoginForm'];
        // validate user input and redirect to the previous page if valid
        if($model->validate() && $model->login())
           // 
           //this if you want redirect to returnUrl (index.php by default) 
           // here you can change redirect to url you prefer 
           // or render proper page  
           // $this->redirect(Yii::app()->user->returnUrl);
           // this for your destination 
            $this->redirect(array('story/create'));
    }
    // display the login form
    $this->render('login',array('model'=>$model));
}
