$_REQUEST['forceredirect']

[Link14716]

In 3.0.x, you could set $_REQUEST['forceredirect'] somewhere to force a redirect to appear. This, however, no longer works. Is there any method of setting or modifying a variable to force a redirect in 3.5.0?

print_standard_redirect($redir_phrase, $doquery = true, $forceredirect = false)

That doesn't help if you only want to set it in certain situations and you don't want to edit a standard vB redirect. That is why $_REQUEST['forceredirect'] was useful.

You mean you want to force redirect messages somewhere in default vB Files in some cases?
Hmm, what about setting $vbulletin->options['useheaderredirect'] = false?

I've tried that and it didn't seem to work.

Now I see why - AJAX QR doesn't like to be told to redirect.

Solved. In my particular case it was the AJAX QR. I guess I need to think about these things a little more. $vbulletin->GPC['ajax'] = false; solves the problem.

Hmm, does work for me

In the past, I was using the following code to force a redirect:

PHP Code:

$url="showthread.php?p={$post}";
eval('$warn_page .= "' . fetch_template('warn_redirect') . '";'); 


Where the warn_redirect template contained the followings:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="1; URL={$url}">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
    <tr>
        <td class="tcat">
            <a style="float:right" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_redirect')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_redirect" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
            <div align='center'>Redirecting..</div></td>
    </tr>
</thead>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_redirect" style="">
    <tr>
        <td class="thead" width="100%">Please Wait..</td>
    </tr>
<tr>
<td class='alt2' align='center' width='100%'>{$message_left}<br/><br/>Your browser is now redirecting you</td>
</tr>

etc.

etc.

This does not seem to be working anymore. Can you please help?

Thanks
