[Solved] unauthorized_page doesn't redirect to id

I have a protected page, when u go to that page it redirects to the homepage and not the page with the id i have set in the systemsettings unauthorized_page.

How can I fix this? I don't understand this line:
This will only work if you have a 'load' Permission (via a Load policy or custom policy) set to the context that the Resource being accessed is in.

See the section here on "Unauthorized Versus Error Page": http://bobsguides.com/revolution-permissions.html

Thanks, I'll give it a try. I hate that section

I really dunno how to do this. (Rev 2.2.0pl2)
To hard to understand for me, why is it so complicated.

Isn't there a package which can do this

Create a new Resource Group Access ACL entry for the Anonymous User Group with the Resource Group of the protected resources, a Context of "web," a Role of "Member" and an Access Policy of "Load Only." Do this for each protected Resource Group

Note that this won't solve the problem for users who are logged on in the front end but are trying to access pages they are not authorized to see. To solve it for those users, add them to the User Groups authorized to see the pages, but with a Role of "Member." Then, Update the User Groups and add another Resource Group Access ACL entry for the group with the Resource Group set to the protected resources, a Minimum Role of "Member" and a policy of "Load Only."

Documentation says:

This will only work if you have a 'load' Permission (via a Load policy or custom policy) set to the context that the Resource being accessed is in.

It's simpler to do than to describe.

That thing at the bottom of your message only applies if you have multiple front-end contexts. If you're not sure, you don't. If the resource is in the 'web' context (IOW, under the 'web' folder in the tree), and it probably is, you can ignore it that warning.

Let me try to make it even simpler:

1. Make a note of which resource group the protected resource is in.
2. Go to Security -> Access Controls
3. Right-click on the (anonymous) user group
4. Select "Update User Group"
5. Click on the "Resource Group Access" tab
6. Click on the "Add Resource Group" button
7. Using the drop-down lists, select the following:

    Resource Group: The group you noted in step 1
    Context:  'web' (or whatever context the resource is in)
    Minimum Role: Member-999
    Access Policy: Load Only

8. Click on the "Save Button" in the dialog

9. Flush permissions
10. Flush all sessions


That should do it.

## edit ##

thought it didn't work anymore but i think it didn't because i was logged into the manager?!

[ed. note: fourroses666 last edited this post 12 years ago.]

When you're previewing from the Manager, you're logged in to the 'mgr' context but not to any front-end contexts unless you explicitly log in in the front end. You also have the right to see unpublished documents, so it's easy to get confused.
