Create a new page (User Account)

I would like to add a menue entry (called User Account) to the menue (or near to the Logout Field) if a user is logged in.

(I wanna make this entry to a central point where the user can find further links and options)

This menue entry should only be shown, when the user is logged in.

My questions are:

1.) How could I reach the page, which is shown after a successful login. )It's the page: login_success.html,
In this page I added the other links and created a news section)

2.) How could I show an own html page, which I created. ( The login_success.html already existed and is used but how do i start an own written page.)

3.) How could I check if the user is already locked in. <%if .....

Sorry, I did not et to work it. IF you get some "tutorial" for that I would appreciate if you could share it here. I believe it's very similar with every other page than to. So if we got a tutorial for one page.... this would solve our problem.

Not quite sure what you mean ... on add_success.html you can add <%if user.Username%>do stuff<%endif%> if the person is logged in.

Yes, i understand that, but what i am trying to do is with the navigation. On Login-success.html

(Home/ Logged In)

For the home button I want to link back to login-success.html instead of the site home page. a href="/what do i put here"

I am having a page setup that upon successful login, user will see their profile and links such as:

1) View your favorites
2) View your account information
3) My Listings : View all your listings
4) Submit Listing
5) Modify Listings: Modify your Web Hosting Plan (s)
6) Remove Listings: Remove your listing
7) Update your profile

Name
Company Name
Site URL
Address Line 1
City
State
Zip Code
Country
Email Address
Email Display?
Phone Number
Toll Free Number
Fax Number

...

I have used below setup.

<%if user.Username%>
Then required display user profile information here.

<%endif%>

Hope this helps.

Hi Andy,

maybe you could help first with something more easy.

I would like to make a impressum page with some text in.

There should be a Link to impressum on the home page.

How could I realize that?

Re: [Jag] Create a new page (User Account) In reply to

Aaah, thanks :D (was thinking he meant "impression", which is why I didn't understand what he mean't <G>)

Que -

First, take a copy of a basic template, i.e; (for luna);

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
<html> 
<head> 
  <title><%site_title%> - Page Title</title> 
<%include include_common_head.html%> 
</head> 
<body id="home"> 
<%include include_accessibility.html%> 
  <div id="wrapper"> 
<%include include_header.html%> 
<%include include_contentheader.html%> 
    <div id="ocwrapper" class="clear"> 
      <div id="icwrapper" class="clear"> 
<%include include_leftsidebar.html%> 
        <div id="contentwrapper" class="shadowleft"> 
          <div class="shadowtop"><div class="shadowtopleft"></div><div class="shadowtopright"></div></div> 
          <div class="shadowright"> 
 
            <div id="content"> 
 
                    <h4>Put Your Title</h4> 
 
                    <p> 
                     you can put your content here 
                    </p> 
 
            </div> 

          </div> 
          <div class="shadowbottom"><div class="shadowbottomleft"></div><div class="shadowbottomright"></div></div> 
        </div> 
<%include include_rightsidebar.html%> 
      </div> 
    </div> 
<%include include_contentfooter.html%> 
<%include include_footer.html%> 
  </div> 
</body> 
</html>

Then, save this as "disclaimer.html".

You can then call this with;

page.cgi?p=disclaimer

If you want to make it look like a static page, you can use this mod_rewrite;

Code:
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteRule disclaimer\.html /cgi-bin/page.cgi?p=disclaimer

Hope that helps =)

Ps: It's a pitty that the Gossamer Forum does not support a value system (like the sdn.sap.com Forum) Otherwise I would value you some points for your help....
