a small question regarding print_standard_redirect
 

Hi,
I'm kinda new in the vb hacking and i ran into a tiny problem.
I'm trying to redirect the user after he does a certain action. Now i use print_standard_redirect function and it redirects currectly. However if i am not mistaken a redirection message should appear, sadly it does not.
Anything i might be doing wrong ?

Thanks,
Tpr

You need make a custom phrase in the group Front-End Redirects with the title of the redirect you used in the function.

The odd thing is that i simply used an existing pharse for the test i created and it still did not show it.

Is it possible that the pharse will not appear if i did not pre-cached it ? I know that pharses that were not pre-cached do appear normaly (but take an extra query).

Thanks

Setting the second argument to FALSE will allow you to use a precached phrase, or just text. If you leave it default/have it TRUE it will run a query and retrieve it from Front-End Redirects.

In what way isn't the text working? Instant redirect, or the redirect screen with no text?

because you have it disable, this option can be found in you ACP.

to force the redirect message appear even that option is disalbed, use

before the print_standard_redirect() function.

Ok, thanks a lot that solved the problem.
I placed the on the begining of the page but for some odd reason it did not work, when i moved it just before the redirect the message appeared.
