Thank you for providing CB Auto Actions which will be hugely beneficial in this my first CB implementation. I’ve watched all of Nick’s videos on the topic. And I’ve attempted to create a trigger to do the redirect I desire but, so far, to no avail. Still have much to learn.

In the meantime, please help me “Redirect to a Page When Attempt to View Private Profile is Made” because I really don’t like that the guest/user can see /profile/username at the end of the URL when a guessed username has been manually typed in the address bar. If someone goes on a fishing expedition for a certain user who’s profile is private, I don’t want it known that the particular profile exists.

I’ll probably customize the UE_NOT_AUTHORIZED system message too but what can I do? The following does not work:

Global
Triggers: onBeforeUserProfileDisplay onBeforeUserProfileRequest
Conditions: Field privacy_profile Operator Equal To Value Private
Action: URL to page on which I want the Error message to land

If you know what I should use instead, great. Or if you can point me in the right direction, I will appreciate your help.

Great custom message option, and it displays for logged in users, but I have yet get the redirect to work for logged in users attempting to access private profiles.

Thanks for the parameters. I got the above to work for guests with a slight change. Access: Everybody

I also made a hidden menu item /profiles for the redirect location, but the custom Access Denied Message did not work for guests. So I just made a language override for that case.

If you think of something else I can try to redirect logged in users to my hidden /profiles custom error landing page, great. Otherwise, I'll move on and keep exploring all the great things that can be done with the profiles and community sharing.

Thanks!
