pages vs forums as homepage

[david kassan]

I'm running v4.1.10 and I'd be grateful for help:

I want to set up a "splash page", explaining what my site is about with several columns of text and images, and offering registration by subscription. I've got this set up using "Pages" so that Guests see this page, and are offered registration with links through to two subscription options in the store. All good.

 

But what I'd like to do is then have subscribed members log in and be taken directly to the forum - grateful for suggestions about how to achieve this

I haven't tried but this should work 

 

edit the "spalsh page" go to content "the page must be manual HTML not page builder "

and paste this 

{{if \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_group_id === 4}}

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://example.com/" />

{{endif}}

change the number 4 to the group id you want them to be redirected to the example link i have set 

and change the example link to your forum link

That works, thank you!

I set it  with 

member_group_id !== 2

so it redirects everyone except guests. I put it into the top of the page template .
