Never mind, I think. Option 3 does work. I thought I
remembered seeing something about that syntax, but I couldn't find it
in the documentation. Did I just overlook it?<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 4/3/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Tegan Dowling</b> <<a href="mailto:tmdowling@gmail.com">tmdowling@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div style="direction: ltr;">The site I'm working on will be read-protected via password (not using
user-authentication). But the client would like something
friendlier than the blank-page-and-password-prompt that's the default. <br>
<br>
I could make Main/HomePage into a (:noleft:)(:noright:) welcome page
with a "Please Log In" link, BUT then anytime an already logged-in user
of the site goes 'home', that's what they'll see.<br>
<br>
So:<br>
<br>
1) do I try to customize the Site.AuthForm page?<br>
2) can I redirect from HomePage to a welcome page, conditional on lacking read-authentication for the Main HomePage, somehow?<br>
3) or turn that around, if there's a markup like <br>
(:if ! auth read sometestpage:) welcometext (:if auth read sometestpage:) regular text ?<br>
4) other suggestion?<br>
