How to redirect with context - trentada - 05-15-2020
Hi Guys,
I have a requirement to go directly to a 'post' in my website members section from a link in an email. At the moment, if the user is logged on, all is good, but if they're not they are re-directed to the home page and the context in the URL is lost.
I have changed the code to redirect to the logon page but the context is still lost. Is there a way to pass data with the redirect or should I be calling the view and pass the data in there? Also, I don't think I can use cookies as there is also links coming from SMS messages.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards
Trent

How about saving it in a session variable, or a flash data.
