Subject: emailing an Elgg URL, possible forwarding issue!
Hi all,

Not sure if this counts as a forwarding issue or not, I'll explain...

If I email an elgg internal URL to someone, showing a topic that they
would be interested in:
Such as this:
http://<servername>/elgg/mod/groups/topicposts.php?topic=4246&group_guid=52 2

On them clicking the link, It'll take the user to the login page,
after logging in it'll take them to their Dashboard, is it possible
for them to be taken to the actually topic that I think might be
interesting to them, rather than them having to find it for
themselves?

When you invite a user to join a group, the URL which is emailed to
them:
http://<servername>/elgg/action/groups/join?user_guid=182&group_guid=1377

Gets them to login, it then takes them straight to that group - this
is what I want to happen for all pasted URL - Is it possible ?

Many thanks.

Solved it do the following :

/opt/lampp/htdocs/sun/mod/groupstopicposts.php

Line 24, add:

 //added by munkee, so that emailed URL can be reached upon a
successfully login
                gatekeeper();
                group_gatekeeper();  *this line already exists

The line gatekeeper(); is the added line, without it, it didnt check
to see if your logged in or not. With it, it will wait till you do so,
then continue on.

To get the same with URL's which point to non public Pages do the
following.

/opt/lampp/htdocs/sun/mod/pages/view.php

Line 19:

 //added by munkee, so that emailed URL can be reached upon a
successfully login
 gatekeeper();

Regards,.
