So the situation you're in is:

- User is registered but does not have any roles.
- User tried to go to admin backend and gets redirected to front page.

And now you want to redirect the user not to the front page but to the user's "My Account" page. Correct?

If so, its not really a question about the account plugin. The redirect to the front page is currently done in the backend.php file of the core. Near the top of that file it contains the following code:

// Redirect to front page if user doesn't have appropriate roles.
if (!AuthUser::hasPermission('administrator,developer,editor')) {
    header('Location: '.URL_PUBLIC.' ');
    exit();
}

If you want to redirect to the account page instead of the frontpage, just update the header() line to point to the correct url. (depends on what you entered in the settings screen)

Putting the redirect here is not the best solution and we'll probably change it to something nicer in the future, but for now this is it.

Two suggestions for improvement: more roboust User Roles (Groups) allow per item access, so if they can access a page but, can't download a file because they aren't in X Group.

Also, you should allow custom fields so you can request more information from users on the registration process, allow a toggle checkbox to determine whether required for registration or remains optional.

Lastly, you should have the ability to moderate users, so they have to be approved before being allowed to access their My Account page.

Does that plug in work with the latest version of Wolf CMS 0.6.0?

I'm encountering a problem with the implementation of the Registered Users plugin.

The problem occurs If you're NOT using clean url's (at least that's the case for me)

The login form links to an non existing page /login/login

In order to make it work I had to alter the code in RegisteredUsers.php on line 48

I changed:

echo '<form action="'.URL_PUBLIC.' '.ADMIN_DIR.'/login/login"method="post">;

to

echo '<form action="'.URL_PUBLIC.' '.ADMIN_DIR.'/?/login/login"method="post">;

(added /? infront of /login/login)

I seems to work with this fix.

0.6.0 stable

*EDIT*

tested with the nightly and it has the same problem. only the code fix does not seem to work here

Hi all

I have recently installed the Account plugin to allow user to edit their account etc - the main account page works fine however the edit and password pages simply return a blank page.  Does anyone know why this might be?

thanks in advance,

Josh

Thanks! that seems to have solved the problem.

May I asked which files you changed? I had made some slight changes to some of the files to fit in with look and feel etc - would be useful to just replace the changed files rather than everything.

Thanks again,

Josh

When I changed this it made all my admin pages go blank.

Currently gives errors when enabling themed account page in 7.3 stable:

In the black bar above post #1, at the right end, you can use the "RSS Topic Feed" to get notifications of posts in this thread. I think that's the best punBB can do.

Delighted to hear it!

(And I'm sure you'll get some help with the substantive questions soon!)

@David -  Thanks for the forum tip!  I have another client to upgrade next week, I hope it goes as well and I don't need to post unless I am boasting another great success!

@Martijn - Worked like a charm.  Everything is well again...  A typo, and I thought my number keys were the only ones that kept moving on my keyboard.  Looking forward to 0.5.0.  Thank you VERY much, that page looks so much better with the site's custom layout!
