Get User Homepage URL

Hi! 

Is it possible to get the user homepage url from the user_level table using the either get_user_info function or some other method? 

I'd like to put in a link back to a users dashboard where possible.

Thanks,

Ben

hey this is a out of support question because this is not available in the script but i will try to give you a little help on it.

1st of all you can use dashboard.php wherever you want to assign redirection to level page. Because dashboard.php page is only acccessible to admin users and any other type of user would be redirected to their own page. 

2nd in case you want to get the page name from database then first of all you need to know what type of user is loged in

User type is saved in SESSION variable. $_SESSION['user_type']

But you should also make sure the User level and user_type is same always. 

Now you can use the userlevel function and it can be called like

echo $new_level->get_userlevel_info($_SESSION["user_type"], "level_page");

$new_level is an object of Userlevel class which is initiated in system_load.php file. 

Hi Samar, 

Thanks for the reply, I ended up re-using one of the existing functions to obtain the dashboard url. This might be useful for newer releases?

// Get Dashboard url

function getDashboardUrl($user_type) { 

global $db;

$query = "SELECT * from user_level WHERE level_name='".$_SESSION['user_type']."'";

$result = $db->query($query) or die($db->error);

$num_rows = $result->num_rows;

if($num_rows > 0) { 

$row = $result->fetch_array();

$page = $row['level_page'];

$dashboardUrl = substr($page, 2);

} 

return $dashboardUrl;

}

Thanks for your help! :)

Thanks i will include this in next version this would be helpful for some users.
