[TYPO3] Using a different page as current for the menu

[Rudy Gnodde]

Hello everyone,

Since this doesn't seem to be possible, I ended up making a PHP script
for a menu using .special = userdefined.

> Hello everyone,

> I have a couple of pages that are visible in the menu (at 
> different levels), but require you to be logged in. If you 
> click on the menu item it automatically redirects you to a 
> single login page, using showAccessRestrictedPages, and 
> showAccessRestrictedPages.addParams to set a redirect after 
> login. Unfortunately the login page is in a different 
> location than (some of) the restricted pages, so the menu 
> changes. Is there any way to "fool" the menu into thinking 
> the current page is the restricted page, either through 
> TypoScript or PHP?
>  
> The page tree looks something like:
>  
> Root
> - Page 1
> -- Page 1.1
> -- Page 1.2
> -- Page 1.3 (restricted)
> - Page 2
> -- Page 2.1
> --- Page 2.1.1 (restricted)
> --- Page 2.1.2
> -- Page 2.2
> -- Page 2.3
> - Page 3 (restricted)
> - Login page
> 
> So if someone goes to Page 1.3, 2.1.1 or 3 they will be 
> redirected to the Login page. After login they are redirected 
> back to the restricted page (which they can view now).
