Redirecting Secure Pages Based on Specific Users or Groups

 

If you decide to make a page secure per these steps, you can also set up the page to automatically redirect specific users or groups to other pages on your website.

 

For example, let's say you secure a page and allow a security group named 'X' to be able to log into that page.

 

You can set up the page to also redirect all of the 'X' group users to another page when they log in. Or, you can set up specific redirects based on individual users in the 'X' security group.

 

To do this, follow these steps:

 

1. Open a page for editing in the admin area of your website.

 

2. Click on the security tab

 

 

3. Click on 'secure page' and set it to yes

 

4. Select a security group to give access to the page.

 

5. Now in the Redirect to URL area, you have a couple of options.

 

a) If you enter a url in the main group line, it will redirect any user from that group that logs in. So for example, per the above image, if you entered http://google.com in the line for the 'X' group in the image above, any member of the 'X' security group will get redirected to google.com when they log in

 

b) you can also enter specific url's for specific users. So per the above image, you could redirect Esmith39 and Ghoton28 to 2 different url's.

 

6. Once you've entered in all of your redirects, click submit, then publish to get the changes to go live.
