- Here is the solution: I'm still testing it, but so far so good. Note: For the longest time, I had two "r" in request.env.http_referer which DID NOT WORK. Ref: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/web2py/jGZgPYGNzuY Jonathan Lundell It's not your problem, but it's 'http_referer'; it got misspelled somewhere back in the mists of Internet time. ######################################################################### # # Solution: how to have a user redirected to a page AFTER login # and to have Profile Update, redirect to Profile, with flash message # in this example, the URL('user/profile') will be used. # app name: AuthRedirect <- just a NEW application, with no modication # web2py Version 2.2.1 (2012-10-21 16:57:04) stable # - - - - - # in layout view, modify the line: # <ul id="navbar" class="nav pull-right">{{='auth' in globals() and auth.navbar(mode="dropdown") or ''}}</ul> # to # <ul id="navbar" class="nav pull-right">{{='auth' in globals() and auth.navbar(mode="dropdown",referrer_actions=None) or ''}}</ul> # this will cause the URL not to display # http://127.0.0.1:8000/AuthRedirect/default/user/login?_next=/AuthRedirect/default/index # but rather # http://127.0.0.1:8000/AuthRedirect/default/user/ # - - - - - # two lines of CODE BELOW placed in : # /models/db.py - located BELOW the setting under > ## configure auth policy lines auth.settings.login_next = URL('user/profile') # When user updates profile, they will be redirected to profile, with flash message auth.settings.profile_next = URL('user/profile') ######################################################################### ######################################################################### # This conditional in def user(): in default.py # Purpose: if is to .flash a message when user updates profile, and stay # on profile page if '/profile' in request.env.http_referer and request.args(0)=='profile' : response.flash = T("Profile saved.") ######################################################################### --
