I' ve set a custom splash screen (full) for authenicated and anonymous users.
Also the option "Override your HOME breadcrumb links" is active on my site, because i've an "internal" homepage with news and incoming events.
The "override home links" option work for authenticated users, but doesn't work for anonymous.
When Anonymous click on any "home" links, always get the splash page.

HI PAso,

Thanks for flagging that. I'm busy at the moment but I'll have a look at that during the week.

For me, the redirect HOME link doesn't even work for authenticated users.
I'll try to make time to have a look at it.

Oh, my bad! It DOES work for me. I was hovering over the link and saw the link to the root, but when clicking on it, it does redirect to the specified place.

But now, I find out that it works equally well for anonymous users. I cannot reproduce the problem.
Do you still have this problem? Can you tell us how to reproduce it?

I've have got this problem. The redirect was working fine, and just today any redirect I set in the front page admin setting no longer does anything. Any ideas?

@thomas

I'm trying to recreate the problem. cam you indicate what settings you have for each element? for example:

1/ Do you have anything in your textarea for anon users, or is it empty + redirect?

2/ Do you have anything in your text area for authenticated users, or is it empty + redirect?

there was a known issue before about the anon text area being empty affecting redirects, so I'm just trying to recreate the problem you're experiencing to see if it might be the same issue.

Hi. I've got futher into the problem, and it turns out that someone else has made changes to the way the front page is handled by the site. Previously the front page was handled by a template "page-front.tpl.php" in the theme, but because the theme was being shared with another site this had to change. As part of this fix he changed the name of the "page-front.tpl.php" to "page-9999.tpl.php" and set that node as being the default front page in site information with a URL path of...wait for it..."front_page" which crashed your module, whilst working as a front page redirect.

Once I found out I changed the URL path of that node to "front" and your module is working just fine. Thanks for the interest
