#7 Direct new user to My Profile after logging in for 1st time
After user has logged in with system-generated password, the page they go to (Home Page) needs to have directions telling them to click on MyProfile link at top of page to set up profile, before they search for tutor (unless we enable functionality to search for tutor with out being a registered user).
What happens if they don't fill out their profile even if we direct them the first time they log in? They should have at least a full name before they make an appointment with a tutor. Can we add new fields to the registration page? Maybe we can require a full name when they register. Also it's silly that we make them type in their email address during registration, and again in their profile. Where is that email address during registration being stored?
This redirects the user ONLY on their first login to their profile page.
There is now an indicator in the drupal_users table, under the first_visit column. When set to 1 it will redirect the user on login to go to the profile page and set it to 0. When on 0 it will never redirect again. Unless reset.
This code was updated in the /themes/garland/template.php. Lines 4-18
This new user issue has not been fixed. Repro steps:
1. from landing page http://www.voluntutor.tk/
2. Choose Create new account http://www.voluntutor.tk/?q=user/register
3. fill in fields on page. Submit. Emai sent with temp password.
4. log on with new password on http://www.voluntutor.tk/
5. Taken to dashbord. http://www.voluntutor.tk/?q=node
All of this is okay.
6. Original bug was to have directions to New user to go to Profile link and fill out a profile and change their password. These directions are not there.
