Hi William
I came up with a different solution that involved taking the following code:
AccessControlList acl = data.getACL();
if ( acl == null )
{
acl = TurbineSecurity.getACL( data.getUser() );
data.getSession().setAttribute(
AccessControlList.SESSION_KEY,
(Object)acl );
}
data.setACL(acl);
data.save();
if (acl!=null && acl.hasRole("turbine_root"))
{
data.setScreenTemplate("Index.vm");
}
else
{
data.setScreenTemplate("Welcome.vm");
}
and placing it in a copy of LoginUser.java, which I then placed in my
application as AppLoginUser extends Action. I have the first login page
call AppLoginUser instead of LoginUser, and now I have control over
which screen is displayed to which user.
I also placed this in Default.vm
#if($data.getACL().hasRole("turbine_root"))
$navigation.setTemplate("/Menu.vm")
#elseif($data.getACL().hasRole("content_manager"))
$navigation.setTemplate("/ContentManagerMenu.vm")
#end
which allows me to show different menus to different users.
It's probably all the wrong way to go, but it seems to work so far :-)
