[TYPO3-dev] Log in frontend user before page access check

[Nicole Cordes]

Hi Richard,

I think you should have a look at the extension cabag_loginas
(http://forge.typo3.org/projects/extension-cabag_loginas) and my patch
http://forge.typo3.org/issues/37114

Maybe this solves your problems as it did for me.


Best regards,
Nicole Cordes

Betreff: [TYPO3-dev] Log in frontend user before page access check

Hi all,

I have pages that are set to 'show at any login'. I want Backend Users to be
able to go to the URLs for these pages (from a link in a backend module or
from custom TCA field, or even page tree), be automatically logged in before
access check for the page (so they don't get a 302 and are sent to root page
and are forced to log in) and then view the page.
Anyone know if it is possible to do in one page load?

I've tried adding a library, but it gets included after page permissions are
checked so the user is redirected before login, and ext_localconf.php and
ext_tables.php are executed before $GLOBALS['BE_USER']->user is filled.
Know its a longshot, but I'd rather check for a backend user in the frontend
and then log them in as a frontend user, instead of having to either 1.
create a TSFE in the backend to log the user into, or 2. have a hidden
iframe somewhere that forces the be_user to invisibly 'visit' the frontend
so they can be logged in by the library before they click any links.
I'm happy to get a 'thats not possible' answer back, at least it will
confirm what I've checked.

Thanks
Richard
