Hi Folks,
i want to code a small "intranet" page. For this to accomplish i need a user login form to be displayed at first in the center of the screen when a visitor enters the site.
After login the main page should be displayed.
The approach i took is to add a second layout next to "main" called "login" where the login page is displayed.
Now come the questions:
- how do i route the user from any place of the intranet to the login page, when he logs out or the session runs out?
approach: in the /components/Controller.php i added the init() method:
function init() {
if (!Yii::app()->user->isGuest) {
$this->layout = 'main';
} else {
$this->layout = 'login';
}
}
would this be a good approach?
-
should i use the SiteController for Login or should i use a seperate LoginController?
-
i need to instantiate the /models/LoginForm.php whenever the loginform has to be displayed - how can this be accomplished?
Thanks so much in advance, any help is appreciated!
If you have any good tutorial on this, please let me know!
Merry X-mas,
