Drupal Rules + one-time-login redirect issue

Question

Problem is as follows:

I have a rule which redirects users to a landing page after login. It works fine.

However, if a user forgets their password, they are sent a link to the one-time-login page. They click the button and (because of my rule) are sent to their landing page.

The problem of course is that they cannot then change their password because the normal password change (in the user profile) requires you know your password to change it.

So how would I modify my redirect rule to say:

"Redirect to landing page, unless the logging-in user is coming from the one-time-login screen" or "Redirect to the landing page, unless the target URL starts with /user/reset/* (can you wildcard??)"

Thanks in advance for any tips

Answer 1

You can do that with a rule like that:

{ "rules_after_login_redirect_to_news" : {
    "LABEL" : "After login redirect to news.",
    "PLUGIN" : "reaction rule",
    "WEIGHT" : "0",
    "REQUIRES" : [ "rules" ],
    "ON" : [ "user_login" ],
    "IF" : [
      { "NOT text_matches" : {
          "text" : [ "site:current-page:path" ],
          "match" : "^user\/reset\/",
          "operation" : "regex"
        }
      }
    ],
    "DO" : [ { "redirect" : { "url" : "news" } } ]
  }
}

Answer 2

I fixed this problem just using rules, as outlined in another answer here but i had to modify it to work, i had to set the Text comparison condition to negative, and the page redirect to Force redirect, and the page i wanted was called 'getting-started'. Works Perfect

So the rule i added: EVENTS User has logged in

CONDITIONS NOT Text comparison Parameter: Text: [site:current-page:path], Matching text: user, Comparison operation: starts with

ACTIONS Page redirect Parameter: URL: getting-started
