@pitaj That's exactly what I need.
Thank you very much!
Hi everyone, thanks for any input on this.
Is there a way to detect if a user is logged in to NodeBB and have them redirected depending on that status?
Specifically,
User visits www.example.com, a basic html home page.
I would appreciate any guidance on this,
Thanks for your time.
You can get loggedIn status from
https://www.example.com/forum/api/user/${username}
It returns a json object with a loggedIn
boolean.
Example (using jquery to fetch)
$.getJSON('https://community.nodebb.org/api/user/yariplus', (data) => {
if (data.loggedIn) window.location.href = 'https://www.example.com/forum/'
})
Thank you for your quick reply.
Is there a way to check logged-in status without specifying a user?
All I want to be able to do is to have a custom homepage for my NodeBB website that only displays to guests.
If one of my registered (& logged in) users visits, have it send them to the forum rather than to the custom homepage.
Thanks again for your help, appreciated.
Yup, you can fetch https://www.example.com/forum/api/me
, it will return an error if not logged in, and an object if you are.
@yariplus to clarify, it's /api/me/
, with the trailing slash. It is significant
