After an Action Redirecting

Hi Everyone,

After subscribing to a thread or a Forum, it redirects you back. Within the program, what contols that? How would I write it to redirect and log out?

I think it has something to do with this code in the member2.php file:

eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_s ubsadd")."\",\"\$url\");");


Thanks,

Alex

You want to be automatically logged out after subscribing to a thread?

Hi Tubedogg,


Thanks for replying!! Yes, that's right. How to rewrite it so that it subscribes you, but then you come back logged out.

All the best,

Alex

The $url variable is dynamic -- it varies based on where you last came from.

If you replace the:

\$url

in that line (yes, include the \), with:

member.php?action=logout&s=\$session[sessionhash]

it should work.

eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_s ubsadd")."\",\"member.php?acti on=logout&s=\$session[sessionhash]\");");

Hi Ed,

That's what I wanted But, I think we both overlooked one detail. Because the subscription process includes the .gettemplate("redirect_subsadd") as the second to last step, the logout works great, and the return too, but that .gettemplate("redirect_subsadd") is the returned to location, which then goes to the logout, which then goes to the... and it gets in a loop. How would I write it so it redirects back ?2? places, instead of just to the immediately previous location

Many, many thanks,

Alex

Logging out shouldn't be a redirect, and the template that is used to say you're now logged out -- error_cookieclear -- doesn't have any references to $url, so that shouldn't be happening. Have you hacked logging out so it redirects as well?

Dr. E,

Of course you were right. :classic: I had. Took that out. Now, it subscribes them, and they finish at the "All cookies cleared. Click here to return to the forums index." What would I need to add to have it redirect them back as the last step?

Thanks,

Alex

Presumably, if you change the subscription redirection to include $url:

eval("standardredirect(\"".gettemplate("redirect_s ubsadd")."\",\"member.php?action=logout&url=\$url& s=\$session[sessionhash]\");");

Then put your $url-dependent logout code back in, it should work. No guarantees though.

Hey Dr. E,

I had used this one for the logout

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...hreadid=24889.

That's the only hack I have right now. Everything else is native.

Added that back with your new code, but still got subscribe, logout then stop there, no redirect. Tried to rewrite it a few other ways, but came up empty :P Any other way to write it? I can remove that hack if it will help.

Thanks,

Alex

You can also stick the code from member.php's logout action in member2.php, and change the redirect to a standarderror. If you need more info let me know.

(and stop with all the smilies, makes the page load slower j/k)
