hey guys,

is there a simple way to block the full registration and only allow users to see the quick registration?
for example when a user enters the wrong recaptcha on the quick registration, he gets redirected to the full registration - instead i would like him to try again on the quick registration.

in short, how can I redirect the full registration page to the quick registration page?

thanks in advance
Hello Philipp,

Hm, you shouldn't actually need to worry about redirecting the user when they access the completed page because if they didnt go through the steps, I don't think they are allowed to access the complete page.

As a work around I suppose you could use Joomla's redirect component and direct it to the quick register.

Yep, as Josh Lewis stated above, you could use Joomla redirection to redirect URLs. Alternatively, you could add a 301 redirection rule in your .htaccess file.

thanks for your quick reply!

seems very smart and i should have come up with that myself:
Redirect 301 /community/registration http://my_domaine.com/register


only problem: now this page is 404: /community/registration/completed/1?userid=xyz

is it safe to "301 redirect" that one as well? Like
Redirect 301 /community/registration/completed/1 http://my_domaine.com/registercompleted


can I specify in the settings a succesfuly registration redirect?
and does the "1" at the end of the url specify the profiletype?

thanks in advance
(very great support by the way!)
