The Elgg Community: Log In Required

if (!in_array(strtolower(trim($current_url)), array_map('strtolower', $allow)) && get_context() !== 'profile' && get_context() !== 'widget')

gatekeeper();

Note: If you do not want the widgets to show any content, you can remove the

&& get_context() !== 'widget'

from the end of this statement. It will allow access to the profile page showing the profile information only.

intewesting code ;-)

thx

a new twist on "walled garden"

;-)

I had a peek into yr code.. rather very interesting coding and extensibility style ! I hope more people download and check this out -- even though a little bit of coding may be required to extend the functionality, I believe that this will help people cure some headaches they are having with the other, heavier plugins.

Thank you for this nice plugin. works great on elgg 1.7

I added 2 lines to allow jscript and css after line 36 (on the start.php)

$allow[] = $CONFIG->url . '_css/js.php';
$allow[] = $CONFIG->url . '_css/css.css';

I used it with version 1.7 with site access and seems to be working great. Did not want to enable walled garden on site access due to the trouble having to approve everyone. This is just what the doctor ordered. Thanks. You get another recommendation.

Hello. It will be much attractive when user get system message: "You must be logged in to view that page." How can I enable something like this?

There's a problem if both this plugin and izap_videos (latest release) are being used in Elgg 1.7.1 together. The conversion jobs of uploaded videos won't finish completely in izap_videos. The problem might be caused due to the notification message that izap_videos sends after the conversion getting blocked by "Log in required". But I'm not sure if the notification message is the reason for the problem or if some other tasks that izap_videos tries to do is blocked by "Log in required" and the missing notification message is just another consequence of that.

Other plugins don't seem to have problems with sending notification messages if "Log in required" is used. I'm not sure if the solution of this issue involves adjustments in "Log in required" or in izap_videos. Has anyone else made similar observations? Any advice how to use both plugins together?

Found a nice (very big) bug! When a user does a password reset on my site, the email sent to the user for resetting the password has a link (/pg/passwordreset...), and when the user follows this email, it gives the "please log in" thing.

I added the line to the "//Allow should have pages" (line 32):

"$allow[] = $CONFIG->url . 'pg/resetpassword';

Wow! It took me awhile to discover the same problem that Grizwald found. The user could not reset his password. Made the change suggested by Grizwald and all is well again. Thanks Grizwald. Looks like this should be put into an update soon. This is a big bug.

Hi, this plugin is awesome.

I have one little problem with it, and siteaccess though. When I send a conformation email and the person clicks on it... it says they need to link in to confirm..

I can't seem to find the correct "$allow[] = $CONFIG->url . '*********'; to enter.

If anyone could kindly let me know how I can fix it so people can confirm I'd really appreicate it. Thank you.
