Is it possible to use this plugin to redirect the user after login to specific pages according to their profile?

Has anyone tried this plugin with Moodle 4.5 LTS yet?

Best regards,

Should I see a setting link after enabling the plugin on the Manage authentication?

Hello,

I used this plugin latest update from github in Moodle 4.3 and PHP 8.1, it is working fine without any issues.

To anyone who is interested in installing it, please be reminded that after the installation, the plugin will be disabled, but you can enable it at /admin/settings.php?section=manageauths

I hope this is useful.

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

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"

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

Thanks Felipe,

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

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,
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 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

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

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;}
