After Login Test That User Table Status Flag Is "enabled"

[mbogen52]

My authentication has been set up properly and works using Email for ID and a password field.  In this same User table I have a field called Status which can have a value of "Enabled" or "Disabled".  How can I test for this status field following successful authentication or test at the same time of authentication?

Thank you

Hello mbogen,

 

I think, the last chapter of this article describes the situation that is very similar to yours.

 

I hope it helps.

Jan,

I created a Datapage and put the HTML script from the article - seemed to work OK on its own merit.

But how do you apply this Logon Datapage to your other 5 Datapages that you want that security/logon test? 

Thank you

Hello mbogen,

 

In Authentication, there is the "Time Out & Redirection" setting.

If you select "Go to a new DataPage" or "Go to a new page", you can redirect all users, who are not logged in, to this HTML-page.

If it works for you.

Jan,

Let me see if I can simplify my explanation.  I have a field in my User table called Status.  During my authentication (ID / PW), how can I and where can I check the value of Status?

Thank you

If I understand correctly, Status will be an Authentication parameter.

After a user logs in, you can get the parameter from Authentication Fields and work with it via, for example, Rules or Java Script code.

Sorry, can I ask what is your goal?

Jan,

In my Users table following an ID/PW authentication I want to check the value of Status (if "Disabled") and have the LOGIN fail and/or display a message saying "Your account is Disabled".  Hope this helps.

Thank you

Mbogen,

 

It seems, you can use solution that is described in this article and in this video.

You will use only two groups of users: Enabled and Disabled.

And Disabled users will be redirected to the DataPage, that will say "Your account is Disabled".
