Category demanding authentification

[PF22]

Hi there.

I am using Prestashop 1.6 and I have a question about the way "private" category can be managed.

I set a category only accessible for users that logged in and it works fine.
Howere if you are not logged on and want to acces the categry there is a poor message.

There is 1 error.
You do not have access to this category.

PRestashop doesn't allow to show a link to log in, at least ?

thanks for any help.

Hi,

The behavior is managed here :
https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/blob/1.6.1.x/controllers/front/CategoryController.php#L110

It's up to you to override this and redirect the customer to the auth controller instead of displaying this message
But nothing can be done directly in configuration.

Regards,

Too bad that is the only solution and nothing has been thought to parameter that aspect, but thank you @hhennes.
