Hi,

So with some much appreciated help, I have managed to get front_page to just about do what I want it to do. But I am still unclear about one thing:

I have configed it so that people not logged can only see the splash page (anon: custon html + FULL) and people who have already logged in get redirected "?q=node/8", which is my home page (authenticated: node/8 + redirect) but.......

WHAT IF I WANT PEOPLE TO LAND ON THE NODE I HAVE SPECIFIED FOR THE REDIRTECT FOR AUTHENTICATED USERS, RIGHT AFTER THEY LOG IN?

Currently, people land on something like "?q=user/3", which is not what I want. hmmmmmm.

Thanks for reading this. Any suggestions would be great.

Cheers,

Brendan

as fas as I understand it Brendan users are directed to the page they requested after logging in...otherwise they are brought to the front_page.

Hi Dub,

Thanks for the reply.

People land on a page that is different from what I specify for logged in users after they login successfully for the first time. They land on a page that is " something like "?q=user/3", which is not what I want." Basically a page that has content like what you see in the attachment (theme is kubrick, user's name is b2.)

I don't want the user to get this view, edit, history thing (see jpeg), I just want them to get to the main content. Does this make sense? I think it may be a permissions issue perhaps?

You're welcome

I saw the screenshot, Brendan and unfortunately this isn't really a front_page issue, it's related to the user system.

Can I recommend either of the folllowing?

Redirect after login (relatively new)
http://drupal.org/node/24050

Redirect after login discussion (quite old)
http://drupal.org/node/5066

Hope that helps...I know the search on here doens't work properly..so if the above don't proide any solution, can I recommend you submit a Feature Request for the user system?
