[SOLVED] Redirect to home on log in

[Phillys93]

Hello!

I would like to redirect my users to the homepage on login. What is the best way to do that?

 

Using mod_rewrite rule in .htaccess or modyfi controller?

 

Please leave a example.

 

Thanks

I would modify the authcontroller!

I think it can be enough to modify everyone of these entries:

Tools::redirect('index.php?controller='.(($this->authRedirection !== false) ? url_encode($this->authRedirection) : 'my-account'));

To

Tools::redirect('index.php');

Haven't tested it but it should work!

[vekia]

in authentication.tpl file instead of:

{if isset($back)}<input type="hidden" class="hidden" name="back" value="{$back|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" />{/if}

use this:

<input type="hidden" class="hidden" name="back" value="HTTP://YOURWEBSITE.COM/" />

of course change HTTP://YOURWEBSITE.COM/ to your website url

Nemo1: I will try that!

 

Valkia: Okay, but that leaves me with one problem. I have a multistore prestashop installation which means that i have different URLs for different shops.

You can use my solution then, it will redirect to the current home Or, you can use {$base_url} instead of hardcoding the site's name with vekia's solution

[vekia]

that's right, {$base_uri} will solve problem with multistore

Nemo1's soulution worked!

[vekia]

now i can mark this thread as [solved]

Hi guys,

 

Any idea why both of the solutions you posted above would not work in my installation?

 

I use version 1.5.3.1. Could this be the reason?

 

Thanks!

[NemoPS]

Weird!

Have you overridden the controller? Or hardcoded those changes?

[parsifal]

Neither.

 

Although, the string you mentioned in post #2:

Tools::redirect('index.php?controller='.(($this->authRedirection !== false) ? url_encode($this->authRedirection) : 'my-account'));

is not present "as is" in 1.5.3.1 and I had to improvise a little. Maybe I missed something.

 

I'm attaching the unmodified v1.5.3.1 AuthController.php, in case it helps:
