Jump directly to Project Overview
(This is for version 0.8.0.3) To increase usability for casual users I would like to make them land automatically on the Project Overview page after login if the company they belong to has only a single active project (thus skipping the dashboard which for these users is unnecessary).
I've managed (hopefully) to identify that an additional piece of code should go into application/controllers/AccessController.class.php into the function login(), probably into this section:
if ($ref_controller && $ref_action) {
$this->redirectTo($ref_controller, $ref_action, $ref_params);
} else {
$this->redirectTo('dashboard');
} // ifUnfortunately I am too limited to figure out the correct code - in pseudo-code I imagine something like this working:
if ($ref_controller && $ref_action) {
$this->redirectTo($ref_controller, $ref_action, $ref_params);
} else {
// start pseudo code
$project = $user->getActiveProjects;
if ($project == 1) {
$this->redirect('overview', 'project=$project');
} else {
// end pseudo code
$this->redirectTo('dashboard');
}
} // if
I am struggling both with PHP syntax and PP-specific functions & variables, but am willing to learn. I would appreciate it very much if some kind soul could point me into the right direction.
Thanks to a rainy day I've figured out a solution - posting it here for reference.
Change this bit in the function login in application/controllers/AccessController.class.php from:
if ($ref_controller && $ref_action) {$this->redirectTo($ref_controller, $ref_action, $ref_params);
} else {
$this->redirectTo('dashboard');
} // if
to this:
if ($ref_controller && $ref_action) {$this->redirectTo($ref_controller, $ref_action, $ref_params);
} else {
if (count($user->getActiveProjects()) == 1){
$this->redirectTo('project', 'overview', $ref_params);
} else {
$this->redirectTo('dashboard');
} // if
} // if
