CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi, created a profile with the first name and prefered language and group(s)

Sending them the url with the cs to let them modify it

http://www.example.org/en/civicrm/profile/edit?gid=42&reset=1&id={contact.contact_id}&{contact.checksum}

It goes fine and the user got the profile prefilled with the fields.

However, if the user doesn't have the access right (eg I'm assuming being past the 8 days of validity of the checksum), it does redirect to the home page, without any error message. Is there a way to avoid it ?

Actually, I do have it next time I go on a civi powered page.

However and as noted, doesn't display on the main page.

So that's even more confusing: you don't get the message on the home page when you get redirected, but next time you go to a public civi page (eg registration to an event), you got that message , that has nothing to do with the event but was queued from the previous page.

(actually, that what just happened, tried with a badly formatted url, redirected to the home page, tried the proper url, got the error message even so the registration form was as expected)

Hi,

Don't know, don't use joomla, and what you are doing seems to be correct. Can you test on the demo.civicrm.org and try to reproduce?

Mark - I think Peter's on the right track - try replacing all the &amp  instances in the URL with just &
