I'm looking at Community ACL for the following scenario:

  • Always display all menu items
  • Prompt for login when user clicks on submenu item  (WP for Joomla multi-site blog)
  • After successful login redirect to user to submenu item url
  • Submenu item url is the blog landing page

Is this feasible with Community ACL?

Thank you!

timburkart,

I've addressed the questions here for anyone else who happens to read this, though we addressed it already on the phone:

Always display all menu items
Community ACL can still show the menu items for forbidden components or articles because the menu items are hidden in a separate part of the Community ACL configured.  That means it's possible to:
1. have the menu items display and link to content that is not restricted (obviously)
2. have the menu items display and link to content that is restricted.
3. have the menu items not display and link to content that is restricted for some users.

Prompt for login when user clicks on submenu item  (WP for Joomla multi-site blog)

Yes, you can choose to redirect to a specific page when access is not allow

After successful login redirect to user to submenu item url

There is a redirect that you can define when users log in and are part of a specific group or role.

Submenu item url is the blog landing page

We didn't really discuss this.  Could you elaborate on this a bit?
