Use this plugin to force Moodle to redirect a user to specific pages.

Note that login redirection will only work if the target URL contains the "Moodle root" URL. I.e. "{$CFG->wwwroot}/something"

Logout redirection should work to any URL.

Be sure to read and follow the install instructions here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hrimhari/moodle-auth_loginlogoutredir/master/INSTALL

There are manual steps that require access to your Moodle's config.php file.

This plugin seems to work on Moodle 3.0.
The only nagging issue is that it generates a lot of strict warnings.
Opened issue in github repo (https://github.com/hrimhari/moodle-auth_loginlogoutredir/issues/3).
Any assistance welcomed.
Thx

This works fine on 2.9, thank you. Would it perhaps be possible to include an additional parameter to redirect guests-logins to a different url then logged in users? I'm not sure if this is at all possible, but it would be a welcome addition.

Adding this to line 18 in auth.php and of course adding the variable $CFG->loginguestredir to the config file fixed it for guest access.
if ($username == "guest" && $password == "guest") {$urltogo = $CFG->loginguestredir;}

Hi Felipe,
Thank you for your plugin. I was just wondering if it would be difficult to add a different link for first time login?

ie:
- First time login = redirect to complete profile page
- Subsequent login = redirect to course list

Hope to hear from you soon

Thank you

Hi Nicolas,

I can imagine how to do it, but it's unlikely that I'd do it myself. I'd look into the users table to check for a first login hint and use different url variables accordingly.

Best regards,
Felipe

Excuse my ignorance, but where in the config.php file do I add these entries?

$CFG->loginredir = "{$CFG->wwwroot}/plus/some/different/path"
$CFG->logoutredir = "Any URL you want"

Thanks

Hi James,

Any place between the first line where a $CFG-> appears and the end of the PHP code (before the '>' in the end) should be fine.

Best regards,

Thanks Felipe,

Anywhere I paste that code gives a "Parse error" when I load the page. Any further advice?

Yes, watch out for "smart quotes". If you use the wrong quotes, you'll get a parse error.

Hello.
I tried installing this plugin. I added the following code in the config.php
$CFG->loginredir = "{$CFG->wwwroot}/admin/purgecaches.php";
$CFG->logoutredir = "{$CFG->wwwroot}";

It is showing "abstract user login() method must be overridden"

Good day!

I tested the logoutredir part of this plugin in Moodle up to version 4.1 running on PHP 7.4. So far and it works great for logging out of OAuth2. Note that there is a slightly newer version of the plugin on GitHub. I have not tried it with a newer version of Moodle or PHP yet. Has anyone else?

Best regards,

Michael
