noobie help

I'm using j2.5 and just installed chameleonPro.
I've created two variations of the lumiere template (template1,template2)and want to switch them depending upon whether they're logged in or not.
I've set the group to all logged in users where succeed loads template1 and fail loads template2.
The switch works fine but if the login fails it shows the /component/users/?view=login whereas I'd like it just to go back to the index.php

Re: noobie help

Hi gillecaluim,

That's a good question, but I am not sure if this is affected by Chameleon at all. Usually the URL for the login page is governed by having a menu item set up for it, and that gives it a nicer URL (e.g. /login instead of /components/users/...)

Also it's standard behaviour of Joomla to want to go to a full login page if the login via the module fails. As far as I know there's no place in Joomla to change that.

Sorry about that,
Stephen

Re: noobie help

Redirect Failed Logins Plugin  (v1.64) solves the issue
