Hi all,

Our website has 2 different areas which require logging in. We do not use Community Builder or any extensions that might affect the log in process.

The first login is on the Fireboard forums. Whenever anyone logs into or out of this they end up on the sites homepage instead of staying on the current page of the forum.

The second is the online store (using the standard Joomla! login box) Whenever you log into or out of this it takes you to the first page of the Fireboard forum instead of the current page of the store.

I have created a test account if anyone would like to experience the issue first hand

Username: tester
Password: tester

The site is http://www.totalfiction.co.uk and the two login areas are 'Readers & Writers' and 'Online Store' (tabs along the top of the page)

Please do not post anything in the forum with this account.

Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can offer.
Sonny

Ok, I've fixed the store/Joomla login. There was an option for it under the login module (ie. page after login= and page after logout=)

But I can't see this option in Fireboard. Does anyone know? There must be something someware telling it to go my homepage.

I have the same issue - please help?

I solved it for my issue - at least for my purposes:-

Find the file in your joomla install called components/com_login and change the line:-

Code:

$params->def( 'login', $mosConfig_live_site );

To the following <<substitute the direct link to your own fireboard between the chevrons>>

Code:

$params->def( 'login', '<<Your Link to Fireboard Here - don't forget single quotes>>' );

Now when someone logs in they go directly back to the forums main page. When they logout they go the site index page.

It works for me. Hope it helps some of you - bit of a hack I know but needs must and all that

Snads.

BUT - I do have another issue - the page that comes up after the user clicks on the emailed registration/activation link - how do I change the text on this one and maybe add a link to the forums??

Thanks mate, I'll give it a try. Here, have some karma!

Dunno, but I'd imagine it's another hack job like it would be to change the text on the registration email itself.

You have to change the text itself in the language file, found in the "languages" folder on your server. Just remember what the registration text says and once you got the file opened in an editor, just do a search for some of the keywords in that text.

Edit them and reupload. Simple as that

HI - got one more issue. By the way - it is a superb component.

The issue is:-

When a user makes a new post the text in the message box (where they type thier new message) is light grey and very small - seems about 6px size. How can I change that? The posts themselves turn out great - text seems about 10px and nice and clear. Help appreciated.
