Set new registered customer inactive, redirect failed

[EQ10000]

We want to set the new registered customer to inactive, and we will set it active by manual or other way.

 

In AuthController.php, there is a "$customer->active = 1;" to use.

If we change it to "$customer->active = 0;", that will make the new registered customer to inactive and not logined.

 

However, the Tool::redirect('newuser.php') cannot work as expected. It would not redirect, the browser will show authentication.php after registered and not redirect.

 

Firstly, lets go to classes/tools.php, the function redirect will use $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] in the Tools::redirect function and not the second part to use url.

 

Furthermore, even if we call Tool::redirectLink(newuser.php) instead Tool::redirect(newuser.php), or directly use header('Location: http//foobar.com/newuser.php'), the result is same, the browser still stay in the page of authentication.php

 

Any idea to make the new registered customer inactive and the redirect may get function.

[EQ10000]

After our code redirect(newuser.php);

The newuser.php will call Controller which from FrontController.

There is another call in FrontController.php near line 120

if (isset($_GET['logout']) OR ($cookie->logged AND Customer::isBanned((int)$cookie->id_customer)))

As the user is not allow to login...

Another redirect to $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], that is authentication.php

 

How to fix...

In AuthController.php

change active to 0

$customer->active = 0; // change to not active

a few lines below, change logged to 0

self::$cookie->logged =0; // change to not logged

Hi,

It worked in prestashop 1.5.2

Just need the correct $customer->active = 0; to change since there are more than one.

When i changed the 2nd one, the cookie, i created a new account, it defaulted to disabled and i couldn't log in with it...

Thanks for taking the time to post the solution after you found it.

In PS 1.4.5.1 I solved this problem changing line 205~ in controllers/AuthController.php

Tools::redirect('my-account.php');

changing it to

Tools::redirect('cms.php?id_cms=14');

or friendly url

Tools::redirect('content/custompage');

[1337]

solved the redirect problem at newest ps with

 

Tools::redirect('http://YOURURL');

 

pasted in line 675 (after comment // if register process is in two steps, we display a message to confirm account creation)

 

THANKS

I did what 1337 posted, but it only works with external links (i.e. Tools::redirect('http://www.google.com');, but not with content from my domain ( i.e Tools::redirect('cms.php?id_cms=5');

 

Can someone tell me what´s wrong?

I change the code in FrontController.php of ps1.6

 

if (isset($_GET['logout']) || ($this->context->customer->logged && Customer::isBanned($this->context->customer->id)))

{

$this->context->customer->logout();

Tools::redirect('index.php?controller=cms&id_cms=6');

}

so it will redirect to the page with message "the customer is still not activated by the admin"

redirect after inactivating a registration requires that one logout the customer before redirect, for example (before redirect)

		if (substr(_PS_VERSION_, 0, 3) == '1.4') 
		{
			global $cookie;
			$cookie->logout();
		}else{
			$this->context->customer->logout();
		}
followed by other logic and then redirect

but the inactivated customer still get no message when he try to login right?

the redirect should tell them that their account request has been received, that they will be emailed when account has been approved....etc etc...yes?

yes, give them the infomation

 

is it the right place to change the code in frontController?

if (isset($_GET['logout']) || ($this->context->customer->logged && Customer::isBanned($this->context->customer->id)))

{

$this->context->customer->logout();

Tools::redirect('index.php?controller=cms&id_cms=6');

}

cms 6 is where i edit the message for these customers

I can't help with core hacks (not recommended), this sort of code should be hooked in module, ActionCustomerAccountAdd

 

if you hack core, you will lose when upgrade.  You can  get an idea of how a module handles this situation here.

Does anyone know how to fix this in version 1.7?
