Redirect usergroup at logon from mainpage

[org]

I pasted the code in the wrong place. Since I use CMPS i had to paste it in the start-up template for that. So far so good.

The redirect works if I have permission to see both the startpage and the redirectpage. It bumps off and lands beautifully where it should. :classic:

However, if I dont have permission to see the startpage, it halts there. And the redirect does not take affect.

Any suggestions to work around this? I could create a blank "bounce-off-page" where everyone has access, but maybe there is a cleaner way of achieving the same thing? Either way Im happy.

I think this is a really neat way of directing users to different parts of the forum, and still maintain a clean cut forum, thank you sabret00th and MarcoH64 for helping me achieve this!

*****UPDATE LAST POST BELOW*****

Now it works 100%. I use CMPS so I pasted this code in my home-template:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, xx)">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=yy">
</if>

Where xx is your usergroupid and yy is the redirect page. Works.

Its a neat way of redirecting users (from one easy-to-remember entrance point) to separate - and if needed - isolated parts of the forum, and still have a clean-cut design. I made my startpage blank with just redirection-codes for different usergroups.

I hope this helps someone else. :classic:
