Add a login for 'not authorized...' page
Thursday, 29 November 2007
As you know on any website that has a user restricted page only for registered users, it is not usable for anyone when all that page does is present a message saying:
"You are not authorised to view this resource. You need to login."
without including a login box.
This happens for a8ejoomla but there is a solution to this problem and we'll show you how this can be done
To save you the hassle, download the zip file and follow the instructions.
Instructions (NOTE: This is for a8ejoomla 1.0.13)
- Unzip the file and copy both folder to your installed a8ejoomla from the root as the unziped folder should be the same directory structure.
- If you are concern you can copy each file and overwrite your existing files.
- In the zip file, there should be:
/components/mod_login/login.php
/components/mod_login/login2.html.php
/includes/joomla.php
- Copy them as they are to their respective directories, keeping the directory structure the same
- The file login2.html.php is the same as login.html.php, i've separated them in case that you might want to tweak the file to make it look different from the default one.
- If you are running another version of a8ejoomla then you need to manually apply the hack, please read: this post
