redirect non-members to splash page?

This seems like a really basic function but I don't see it in the admin anywhere: I want non-members (and members who aren't logged in) to be redirected to a page that has a log-in block and a "you must be a logged-in member to access this site - please log in or register" message.

Am I missing it or is it really not included?  Seems like there are lots of membership sites that would need this.

Turn off the menu for all non-members.  Go into Membership Levels and deny everything.  That will tell them to login or join if they want to do anything.

Thanks - I appreciate the suggestion but that's not what I'm looking for.  I want all site content blocked for people who aren't logged in, whether they try to connect to the index page or any internal pages.

It's a standard feature of lots of community sites I belong to - it certainly seems like it oughta be possible with Dolphin.  Any other ideas, anyone?

Anybody?

There has to be a simple way to do this - it's such a basic thing.

please someone help. I need this too.

Thank you in advance

Try this.

Open inc/design.inc.php

Go down to about line 124 and look for the PageCode Function.

function PageCode($oTemplate = null) {
global $echo;
global $_page;
global $_page_cont;   
global $oSysTemplate;

if(empty($oTemplate))
$oTemplate = $oSysTemplate;

header( 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' );
$echo($oTemplate, 'page_' . $_page['name_index'] . '.html');
}


Modifiy it to add the block of code marked in green.

function PageCode($oTemplate = null) {
global $echo;
global $_page;
global $_page_cont;   
global $oSysTemplate;

if(empty($oTemplate))
$oTemplate = $oSysTemplate;

if (!isMember()) {
header('Location: ' . BX_DOL_URL_ROOT . 'splash.php');
exit;
}

header( 'Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8' );
$echo($oTemplate, 'page_' . $_page['name_index'] . '.html');
}


Change splash.php to the name of your actual splash page.

Thanks Deano!  I have been looking for the same thing.  Your fix works, however I encounter one problem.  I'm not sure if the OP has this same issue, but now when a guest clicks any link on the splash page (for example: a join button that directs to join.php or a link to the "About Us" page.) the splash page just reloads.  As soon as I remove the added code in design.inc.php, the problem goes away...but, of course, guests will no longer be taken to the splash page.

you can use the "Guest Surf Limit" from scriptologist for that.

I use it in my page so that people can just see 1 page and than go to join.php or member.php for already member.

You can change this configuration to go to splash.php in the module configuration.

Did this and it worked good, only 1 problem...
If someone wants to register ( join.php ) he's redirected again to the splashpage ( splash.php )
How can i set this right?

 Try this instead

 Doesn't work...

 Sorry my bad...

This should work...

if(isMember() || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'join') !== false){}else{

header('Location: ' . BX_DOL_URL_ROOT . 'splash.php');
exit;

}

Worked! Thanks ;)

When I try this I get "Too many redirects". 

I'm trying the following: 

if(isMember() || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'index') || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'join') || strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'contact') !== false){}else{

header('Location: ' . BX_DOL_URL_ROOT . 'index.php');

exit;

}

I basically want it to redirect them ONLY if they are not a member, and not on the contact page, index page or the join page.

Am I doing something wrong?
