CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi,

I'm using profiles (html form snippet) on an external website (non-CiviCRM) to let users subscribe to newsletter groups. It fits our needs beside the fact, that the user ends up in CiviCRM, after he confirmed his newsletter subscription (double opt-in via e-mail). You can set a redirect-url, which is used after the form has been submitted. But there is no redirect-url setting for the final confirm process.

I guess I have to implement a redirect inside of a hook, but I'm not sure which one to use:

• hook_civicrm_postProcess http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC43/hook_civicrm_postProcess
• hook_civicrm_emailProcessor http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC43/hook_civicrm_emailProcessor
• hook_civicrm_pageRun http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC43/hook_civicrm_pageRun

Which hook should be used here? Or is there another way to set a redirect-url for double opt-in confirmation?

Thank you for the instruction how to inspect hooks. I was always wondering, in which order civicrm hooks get called. Is there a kind of page hook live cycle?

To redirect users after an e-mail confirmation I'm now using an alterContent hook:

function mymodul_civicrm_alterContent(&$content, $context, $tplName, &$object){
if($object->getVar('_name') == 'CRM_Mailing_Page_Confirm'){
$cid = $_GET['cid'];
$sid = $_GET['sid'];
http_redirect('http://civicrm.external.com/thankyou.html', array('status' => 'added', 'cid' => $cid, 'sid' => $sid), false, HTTP_REDIRECT_PERM);
}
}

 I guess this hook is one of the last hooks to get called so no important functions will be missed.
