How to in FE? referer=dHlwb2xpZ2h0L21haW4ucGhwP2RvPWNhdGFsb2

[thyon]

How can I get the FE to behave like the backend with referrer URLs? e.g.

The current client is using the catalog and when you post a comment, the comment URL and comment EDIT URL is posted in the message (this is valid for comments in News as well).

When you click on the edit, the TL BE login is presented and when you logon, you're taken to the page you clicked on.
e.g.

http://www.client.com/typolight/main.php?do=catalog&key=comments&act=edit&id=5

=> login url is:

http://www.client.com/typolight/index.php?referer=dHlwb2xpZ2h0L21haW4ucGhwP2RvPWNhdGFsb2cma2V5PWNvbW1lbnRzJmFjdD1lZGl0JmlkPTU=

However, when you click on the view link, the TL FE login (since the client protects the catalog's pages from public view) is presented, but of course when you logon, you're taken to the default page, rather than the redirect URL.

e.g. Catalog Reader item link is (in comments e-mail)

http://www.client.com/article-detail/items/PoCo1.html

=> login url is:

http://www.client.com/login.html

=> but I would like this:

http://www.client.com/login.html?referer=dHlwb2xpZ2h0L21haW4ucGhwP2RvPWNhdGFsb2cma2V5PWNvbW1lbnRzJmFjdD1lZGl0JmlkPTU=

Maybe its there, but I've ticked a setting or something to disable it? Anyone?

There is a "redirect back to last page visited" option in the login module. Does that help?

[thyon]

nope. it doesn't do anything. Will this option override the default redirect page?

I also noticed that the URL stays login.html without any referrer, etc. So, coming from an e-mail to a protected FE page, doesn't behave like the BE, even with your setting on? Am I configuring it wrong? Does the Member Group redirect interfere?

hi leo

thanks that is the correct feature, but its not quite how I imagined it to work.

To me, if there is no last url visited checkbox, THEN use the login module's default, if that is not set, THEN use the group's default page as a last resort.

At the moment, the group redirect overrides the last visited URL, which to me is counter-intuitive.

Ai, I support your request. Would you please post a ticket in the trac? Thanks!
