Page Access for anonymous user and with a specific group

Question

I have a page: /events/
(a) If the user is not logged in, i want him to see a login
-> Result: Page is visible for all + Login-Element on page (with: hide on login)
(b) If the user is in the usergroup eventuser, he should see an event-plugin on the page
-> Events-Plugin is on page (with group permission: eventuser)

Everything cool for those two guys.

But if the user is a normal logged-in user (without the group eventuser) the page /events/ is empty.

How can i create a page which is accessible for anonymous users (to show a login) and is visible in the navigation for eventusers but not for standard fe_users?

Answer 1

You need to create two user group eventuser and websiteuser.

Now you can redirect user on specific page using redirect option in group configuration.

If user assign websiteuser gruop then you can redirect it's your site home page and eventuser group redirect to event page.

See below screenshot.

Answer 2

Create two pages on the same level.

The first one is accessible for everyone (with "hide on login" set), the second one is accessible for the eventuser group only. Create your login plugin on the publicly available page and set a redirect to the restricted page on successful login.

Create your event plugin on the access restricted page.

Now you need to set a redirect page for your other groups (or the other way around) after successful login, so all other groups, except eventuser will get redirected somewhere else. They won't see the events page at all.
