Redirect to non Vb page

[benbroad]

This must have come up before, but search as I may I cant find it....

I have added a few pages to my site that require users to be logged in. I have written the php to check if a user is logged in, or to log them in if they are not. Everything hunky-dorey.

The problems start when a user clicks on a link on a non vB page and registers. How do you get the redirect to send them back to a non vB page?

edit member php look for the # start login # section and where is says

$url = $HTTP_REFERER;
  eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_login")."\",\"$url\");");
  } else {
	$bbuserinfo=getuserinfo($userid);
	eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_login")."\",\"$url\");");
  }

change that to

$url = $HTTP_REFERER;
  eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_login")."\",\"$url\");");
  } else {
	$bbuserinfo=getuserinfo($userid);
	eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_login")."\",\"http://www.url.com\");");
  }

your code mite be slightly different but i get the idea ? cheers

I didnt notice that anyone had replied to this, so I cobbled something together. Your solution seems to be a lot neater.

I added an extra hidden field in the signupadult and register templates:

 

<input type="hidden" name="benurl" value="$_REQUEST[benurl]" />

so that I can pass register.php a new redirect url will be available to register.php when registration was done.



Then I added a simple if statement in register.php:

 

if(strlen($_REQUEST['benurl']) > 0){

$url = "http://www.vitalphysique.co.uk/".$_REQUEST['benurl'];

}

just before the line:

eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_registerthanks'));

Works like a charm.
