Community Builder User Redirection |
There are a number of reasons why you would want to redirect a user upon login. Maybe you want to have a different starting page for different classes of members, or you have just updated your terms of service and you want all the users of the site to view them on their next login, or you have a special message for all moderators that needs to be read and confirmed on their next login. That's where the Community Builder User Redirection component comes into play, a custom Joomla! component that works with a Community Builder plugin to redirect users upon logging into the site.
The redirection takes place in a two part process:
- First you setup links through the CB User Rediret component.
- Then, the Community Builder plugin handles the redirection on the users' next login.
The redirection links are fully customizable. For each redirection you setup, you can define:
- Which user groups are to be redirected.
- The priority of the redirection in relation to other setup redirection links.
- The expiration date of the redirection (or No Expiration)
- Whether to redirect the user only one time or every time they login.
You can quickly and easily choose to redirect the user to:
- A Content Section
- A Content Category
- A Static Content Item
- A Contact
- A Weblink Category
- A Menu Item
- A Content Article
Currently, only Joomla! Version 1.0.x is supported. A 1.5 implementation will be coming later this year.
You can download the documentation by going to: CB User Redirect Documentation
You can download the CB User Redirect package containing the Joomla! component and the Community Builder Plugin by going to: Community Builder User Redirect.
Due to significant demand, a PHP4.x compatible package is available here: Community Builder Redirect (php4)
