Hi,
I have created a registration page (the url is 'http://mysite.com/user/register') and i would like to go to this page when i write so 'http://mysite.com/'

is it possible ? with the config files of ezpublish or with the virtual host ?

Thanks a lot

Anthony

Hi there the way to do this is to set it as index page

in [SiteSettings] in site.ini.append.php
# Which page to show when the root index (/) is accessed
IndexPage=/content/view/full/2/

Be aware that this registration page becomes your home page, and even already registered users will arrive on this page !!

Make sure it is a good idea and fits your need ...

Also make sure you setup cronjobs for deleting drafts and internal drafts, or they will pile up when people start entering your site..

Hi André,

Can you explain or link me to some doc explaining why it is important to delete drafts and internal drafts in this case using register page ?
I was not aware of this.
Thanx

Hi,

you can proceed as you have said Jean Yves, and in your node 2, do a redirect to register / login
