Page permission and login screen

Posted by Community Admin on 09-Jun-2015 00:00

Hi

I've added a page and made it only given it permission to be seen by a specific user role. When a user tries to access the page without logging in to this role, it offers the backend login screen. How do I make it offer the user my frontend login screen I have created?

Thanks

Cheers

Richard

I have two login pages, each for different areas of the site. Each is under a different root folder/page. Can it work like
that or should I only gave one?

Hi Richard,

In that case you can add in the global.asax

protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)

var exception = Server.GetLastError();

if (exception.InnerException.GetType().ToString() == "System.UnauthorizedAccessException")

HttpContext.Current.ClearError();

var url = HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.ToString();

// sample redirect to the login page

Response.Redirect("0?ReturnUrl=1".Arrange("~/login", HttpContext.Current.Request.UrlReferrer.ToString().Replace("?", "%3f")));

and using "HttpContext.Current.Request.UrlReferrer.ToString()" to get the page where the user comes from in order to desite to which login page to redirect the user.

Than you need to replace in the code above the "~/login" by the respective login page.
