FEU module help with redirection

Post by Schaboo »

Hi

I have problem with FEU settings and I hope for some help.
Website is running:
CMSMS 2.1.5
FrontEndUsers 2.0.7

I'm trying to set up redirection to {$username} using FEU settings page but none of the options:
PageID/Alias to jump to after login *:
PageID/Alias to jump to after code verification *:
accept smarty tag: {$username} but when I use just a static page for
PageID/Alias to jump to after logout *:
it just works!

I'm not sure if there is a fix for it yet but if it is please help.
If there is not I have thought about workaround:
Is there a way to modify a page after login to remove:
"change settings" button and replace it with a link with tag: {$username} for users to click on the link to go to their personal page.

Thanks in advance.

I just tested this (today) and it works. I think the devil is in the details.

I think the problem you're having is the setting 'Email address is username'. Email addresses MUST have an @ and a . and may contain other characters like - etc. Where aliases cannot.

Here's what I did:
a: in the FEU settings, 'built-in-authentication' tab I turned OFF 'Email address is Username' and put {$username} into the 'PageID/Alias to jump to after login'
b: Created a new page and explicitly set the alias to calguy1000
c: Created a new user in FEU with the username calguy1000
d: On the frontend of the website, logged in as calguy1000. It worked fine.

Take the appropriate code out of the 'logout form' template.

this feature should be available in the latest version of FEU as a page content type
