Thread: Login 'Profile Page' Mod

Well, I was sick of member.php executing after successfull login, so I went into profile_customize.php to see how it was able to load a members page without specifying the member's ID. So I got this working easily and I'll show you how:


Just upload the attatched member.php file to your server. This will login the user right into there profile page rather than the default 'start' page. Alot more professional I think.


If you have a modified member.php then with my attatched file copy line 78 and replace your own members.php line 78 with it. Have fun. Hope this isnt too confusing..

similar idea, you could point them to profile_edit so that they are automatically sent to update their profile. Useful for the new shorter join pages.

Thats true. I just thought that there Profile page would be most logical. Hehe... not bad for my first mod

good stuff codyt

Thanks for this CodyT and the Idea lodlock ,

Line 78

I changed to this so after login the page goes to profile edit .

Code:

			echo "<br /><script language=\"Javascript\">location.href='profile_edit.php?ID={$member['ID']}';</script>";

Cheers

No problem, Smarty

I felt this will be good, so sharing with you all.
When a visitor tries to access members only page, our site asks them to join now or login if they are already a member. And if the visitor is already a member, they login on that page and it should take them to the same page were the login request came from.
So here is the code to take back members after login to the previous page that requested this login.

Code:

echo "<br /><script language=\"Javascript\">location.href='$_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER]';</script>";

cool. thanks.

dmkumar, what script file does this line apply too? I might use this.

It is "member.php" and look for

Code:

echo "<br /><script language=\"Javascript\">location.href='$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]';</script>";

replace with

Code:

echo "<br /><script language=\"Javascript\">location.href='$_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER]';</script>";

It is basically, replace PHP_SELF to HTTP_REFERER
