Greetings,

I’m using EE1x on my portfolio site.  I’ve got a public and private segment.  I’ve created a guest group and a member user name and password that’s assigned to that group.

U: Welcome
P: XXXXXXX

I’d like to redirect users who use this profile directly to my portfolio once they’ve signed in.

Any ideas as to how I could pull this off would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
rf

Hi, Flacksmith. Are you using a Login Form?

Once you get them to a page, you’d have that template send them to your portfolio based on their member group. Does that help?

Sue, yes that’s what I did.  Thank you.  I just created a separate Sign-in form and will send potential clients to it.  Here’s what I wanted to do ...

Send (Email) a potential client general user/pass for say a member group called “potential-client”.  THEN with just one Sign-in location, (unified log-in ... I love that sound) have EE redirect that member group to my portfolio. Sort of a member group sniffer sign-in form : )

Any thoughts?

Flacksmith,

You may find a plugin which might get you there on devot-ee.com. I know Solspace’s User module uses a feature called keys which might help

John,

Thank you kindly.  For the sake of others who may visit this string, here’s the link for a module that redirects by user id.

This extension for ExpressionEngine allows you to specify where the user is taken after login (or logout), rather than displaying EE’s default “you are logged in” message. This extension gives you control over whether or not to display the confirmation message at login or logout. You may choose to return the user to the last-visited page after they log in, or you may provide a specific page for all users after login or logout.

Thanks for posting that info, Flacksmith. If anything else comes up, please do let us know in a new thread..
