    In progress Restrict access to HTML page based on custom group

    Post by Simpleman April 16th 2013, 10:46 pm

    Hi I've got a custom HTML page that can be accessed via the menu.  I can restrict access to those menu items via the control panel but it doesn't allow me to restrict access to a custom group.  So I was wondering whether there's any JavaScript code that redirect the user to the main forum if they don't belong to a specific group.

    Ideally I wouldn't want the menu item available if the user isn't part of this specific group.  However if this not achievable I'd like it to work like the code below, but instead of checking if the user is logged in, check if they belong to a specific user group.

    Code:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    if (!document.getElementById('logout')) window.location.pathname = "/forum";</script>

    Thanks.

    I'm guessing by the lack of response but high number of reads that I write a good yarn but I'm not going to get any help with the ending. Sad

    Hi,

    As far as I know, you can only restrict someone by using php, however, php isn't supported here at FM.

    JQuery/JavaScript: would maybe do the trick, all though, someone can just disable it on the browser and simply access it.
