hi
I want to create a hyperlink which basically does the following:
When someone clicks on it, it checks:
- Is this person a guest or member?
>>>>If guest it takes them to Page X
>>>>If member it checks if they belong to the proper membergroup of not?
>>>>>>>If they do go to page Z
>>>>>>>If not go to page X
Is this possible with PHP?
And if yes can someone kindly code it for me? Thanks
In the php which 'echo's out the link, you can use conditions so that different links are generated for different users.
It would be something like this, I believe:
global $user_info;
if ($user_info['is_guest']) echo '<a href="...Guest link target here...">Link Text</a>';
elseif (in_array(#, $user_info['groups'])) echo '<a href="...Group# link target here...">Link Text</a>';
else echo '<a href="...Default link target here...">Link Text</a>';
Replace the '#' in the 'in_array(#, $user_info['groups'])' with the number of the membergroup you want to supply with the particular link (you could actually have mulitple 'elseif' lines before the 'else' for default).
And put all the correct links in the 'a href="', of course.
Using the same Link Text, the link would appear the same to all, but clicking would take user to the appropriate place.
