I try to find a solution, I have a special case, Let's say that my customers add something in cart, then they need to login or register. So I want to do something like this: after login/registration if they have a product in cart to be redirected to the checkout page, if they don't have a product in cart to be redirected to the my account page. Is this possible? Or exist for Magento a extension like this?
Thank you
Yes, its possible.
OPTION 1: Using event observer, add below code in your config.xml:
<events> <customer_login> <observers> <redirection> <class>redirection/observer_customer</class> <method>customerLogin</method> </redirection> </observers> </customer_login> </events> And in your customerLogin() of Namespace_Extension_Model_Observer_Customer class you need to check if current cart has any item then redirect to shopping cart page like -
public function customerLogin(Varien_Event_Observer $observer) { if (Mage::getModel('checkout/cart')->getQuote()->getItemsCount()){ $_session = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session'); $_session->setBeforeAuthUrl(Mage::helper('checkout/cart')->getCartUrl()); } } OPTION 2: Another option is to override Mage_Customer controller. In your module config.xml file add below code:
<frontend> <routers> <customer> <args> <modules> <moduleidentifier_customer before="Mage_Customer">YourModule_Customer</moduleidentifier_customer> </modules> </args> </customer> </routers> </frontend> After that you have to create account controller inside your module controllers directory and placed below code in your controller class:
class Yourmodule_Customer_AccountController extends Mage_Customer_AccountController { /** * Overriding defaults redirect URL * Define target URL and redirect customer after logging in */ protected function _loginPostRedirect() { $session = $this->_getSession(); if($session->isLoggedIn() && Mage::getModel('checkout/cart')->getQuote()->getItemsCount()){ $_session->setBeforeAuthUrl(Mage::helper('checkout/cart')->getCartUrl()); } else{ if (!$session->getBeforeAuthUrl() || $session->getBeforeAuthUrl() == Mage::getBaseUrl()) { // Set default URL to redirect customer to $session->setBeforeAuthUrl($this->_getHelper('customer')->getAccountUrl()); // Redirect customer to the last page visited after logging in if ($session->isLoggedIn()) { if (!Mage::getStoreConfigFlag( Mage_Customer_Helper_Data::XML_PATH_CUSTOMER_STARTUP_REDIRECT_TO_DASHBOARD )) { $referer = $this->getRequest()->getParam(Mage_Customer_Helper_Data::REFERER_QUERY_PARAM_NAME); if ($referer) { // Rebuild referer URL to handle the case when SID was changed $referer = $this->_getModel('core/url') ->getRebuiltUrl( $this->_getHelper('core')->urlDecodeAndEscape($referer)); if ($this->_isUrlInternal($referer)) { $session->setBeforeAuthUrl($referer); } } } else if ($session->getAfterAuthUrl()) { $session->setBeforeAuthUrl($session->getAfterAuthUrl(true)); } } else { $session->setBeforeAuthUrl( $this->_getHelper('customer')->getLoginUrl()); } } else if ($session->getBeforeAuthUrl() == $this->_getHelper('customer')->getLogoutUrl()) { $session->setBeforeAuthUrl( $this->_getHelper('customer')->getDashboardUrl()); } else { if (!$session->getAfterAuthUrl()) { $session->setAfterAuthUrl($session->getBeforeAuthUrl()); } if ($session->isLoggedIn()) { $session->setBeforeAuthUrl($session->getAfterAuthUrl(true)); } } } $this->_redirectUrl($session->getBeforeAuthUrl(true)); } } Note: Compare your
Mage_Customer_AccountControllerclass_loginPostRedirect()method with above mentioned_loginPostRedirect()method for difference. Changemodule,method,configuration node, etc. according to your module.
Let me know if you have any issue regarding approach.
Customer Redirection and put your redirection code inside their code. Magento Connect has soo many extension for redirect login which you get on this link .
