MX Kommerce Forum :: login redirect

Hi,

I have a site that like Yahoo!, has one user account for all sections and services. But i want to redirect the user to the section that they are trying to enter. Not the default success page.

I had a look through tNG_config.ini and found there three settings that are entered in the control pannel:

  $tNG_login_config["redirect_failed"] = "members/members_only.php";
  $tNG_login_config["redirect_success"] = "members/account.php";
  $tNG_login_config["login_page"] = "members/login.php";

I tried something like this inside the config file:

$where = explode("/", $HTTP_REFERER);
if(ereg("rincepals", $where[3]))
{
  $tNG_login_config["redirect_success"] = "rincepals/index.php";
}else{
  $tNG_login_config["redirect_success"] = "members/account.php";
}

I also removed them from the config file and put the code above on the login page, but that redirected to the sites root.

I noticed when looking through the TNG folders that there is a redirect cookie set before you are taken to the login page from restricted pages. Is there a way to set the cookie in the different sections to redirect there after login. I cant see what the variable name is to even try this way.

Has anyone any ideas how i can do this?

Thanks in advance,
Danny

I have done what i was wanting to do. It might be a little messy, but this is what i done:

For my default login page i have this code:

$where = explode("/", $HTTP_REFERER);
if(ereg("rincepals", $where[3]))
{
setcookie("TestCookie","1",time()+100,"/",www.mysite.com);
$logo = "LOGO IMG";
$text = "TEXT";
}else{
$logo ="LOGO IMG";
$text ="TEXT";
}

I have 2 different headers which are selected depending on the reffering page to show different logos and page text.

Then on my default success page i have this code which destroys the cookie and redirects:

if(isset($_COOKIE["TestCookie"])){
setcookie("TestCookie","",time()-100,"/","www.mysite.com");
header("Location: http://www.mysite.com/folder/adifferentpage.php"); /* Redirect browser */
/* Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect. */
exit;
}

Might be a messy way of doing it, but it works! Any improvements on this, please ket me know!

Thanks,
Danny
