Hi, I am using Login addon in my site, I have a login page which is ID 28, what I would like is a snippet to add to this page to redirect users who are logged in already when they land on this page to be redirected to page ID 29. So they don't see the login page if they happen to navigate back to it - ID 29 is the Members homepage, Is this possible? So I want anyone who is not logged in to stay on page ID 28 when they visit it, but if the user is already logged in and they land on page ID 28 to be redirected to page ID 29.

Thanks

dubbs.

The login snippet already detects if they are logged in and if they are it will show a logout link instead of the login form.

If you really need to test and redirect, you might have a snippet like this:

if ($modx->user->hasSessionContext($modx->context->get('key'))) {
    $url = $modx->makeUrl(29);
    $modx->sendRedirect($url);
}
