I'm using frontend user manager and I am wondering if it's possible to make the first page a user comes to after login be named the same as the user depending on wich user has logged in?
Example.
A user goes to the loginpage and logges in... The Frontend User Manager redirects to a subpage, and the subpage is now called the users name!
I have tryid to insert the {$username} into the page titel, but it only comes out with {$username}!
Can anybody help?

Not Title but Alias page
In Preferences of FEU, insert in field "PageID/Alias to jump to after login *:"
{$username}
Change in your pages > Option > fiield "Alias:"
UsernameOfUserThatCanSeeThisPage
User jump in this page after login

Does that mean that I have to create a page for every user or can I just use the same page for everyone... Cause the idea with the alias being the username is just what I want, but when I tryid to do what you surgested I only got this error back:
couldn't get pageid for Peter
Peter being the username...
I made a page called test, and in the page alias I inserted the "UsernameOfUserThatCanSeeThisPage"
What am I doing wrong?

UsernameOfUserThatCanSeeThisPage is fake name
In this case alias of page: Peter

PS: is prefer lower case always

Again... That means that I have to create a new page for each user, and not be able to use the same page as I first attended!? Is taht possible with the $customcontent_loginname?

No you don't have to create a new page for each user.
1) Create a page with the alias 'users_home'
- mark this page as non-cachable
2) In the FEU Admin Preferences, in the 'page to jump to after login' type: 'users_home'
3) In the template for that page, put some logic like this (untested):
Code: Select all
{capture assign='title'}{sitename} - {title}{/capture}
{if $page_alias == 'users_home'}
{if isset($customcontent_loginname)}
{assign var='title' value=$customcontent_loginname}
{/if}
{/if}
<title>{$title}</title>

Ok... Tryid the solution, but only got this:
http://www.mypage.com/index.php/login/users_home
I've done exactly as you described! My template looks like this:
Code: Select all
<head>
{capture assign='title'}{sitename} - {title}{/capture}
{if $page_alias == 'users_home'}
{if isset($customcontent_loginname)}
{assign var='title' value=$customcontent_loginname}
{/if}
{/if}
<title>{sitename} - {title}</title>
{* The sitename is changed in Site Admin/Global settings. {title} is the name of each page *}
Any idea?

Ok... Let me try...
I want to make every user I have in my FEU to all be redirected to the same page, but I want either the title or alias, and I preferr the alias to be the users name. Like if "peter" logged in he would be returned to a page called "loggedin", a subpage to "login", but in my html string it would look like this:
http://www.mypage.com/index.php/login/peter
Hope that clarifies it... And I apriciate all the help

For alias I don't see a possibility,
for title apply Calguy reply but in url you have alias always and not title (
http://www.mypage.com/index.php/login/ALIAS_PAGE)

Yes, you'll be able to set the page title with the username, but not the alias.
