Hello Tran,

Hm, not too sure if I understand you here. Do you mean you want EasyDiscuss to redirect to a login page when the user does not have access to write a new discussion page?

I mean:
if (isGuest){
redirect to login page
}else{
authorize if she/he can post a question
}

The current behavior is to redirect the user to registration page when she/he clicks on "or Ask a Question" button (which is on the right of the search box).

I hope the above is clear...

Hi guys, I'm having this issue too but the above fix isn't working for me, possibly because I'm also using JFBConnect as the main registration/login component.

Actually, I preferred the old route, whereby the 'Ask a Question' button was not even visible to users who, even if registered, weren't logged in.

Any chance of:

a) a revised fix as above, and
b) a new option to hide the button from un logged-in users?

Thanks, Russ

Hello Russ,

We can't actually please everyone unfortunately (I wish we could) but we need to stick to a standardized option If you apply the hacks above, where are you being redirected to?

Thanks, Mark. It works!
Anyway, I don't agree with what you call "standardized option".
Referring to some big websites (e.g stackoverflow, help.openerp.com, etc), the common behavior should be redirecting the user to a page that she/he can login instead of the registration page.

Hello Tran Tuan,

Thanks for the heads up on this. We shall check this out Hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi guys, 3 things further this one....

1) Happy New Year

2) The code fix above wants to take my site to a url "http://log-in.html/" which is obviously a default somewhere and doesn't work. Can you explain how I can change the destination url of getLoginLink please?

3) This was maybe missed in my earlier post in this thread but I really preferred it when the 'Ask a Question' button was actually only visible to registered/loggedin users. Any chance of bringing this feature back please?

Many thanks as always, Russ
