I changed my portals default login page to my account page to see what it did. I thought that it meant after you login it would take you the page you requested not take you to the account page when you try to login. My explorer errored out before I had a chance to test the setting. So now I cant login to my portal at all.

 

Is there a way to change this setting back in a config file, or is there a way to change this setting back by editing a table in my sql db, or is there a direct link to the login page that bypasses the javascript.... Or can I edit the javascript to give me the correct page. I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to change this setting back. 

 

Thanks,

Dave

Dave-
If you have some sort of javascript console there IS a script to take you to the login page but that would simply repeat the issue you're already having (i.e., direct you to the page where you're already being directed).

Fixing the Setting in the DB
You need to get into your DNN DB to undo your issue.  Check table "PORTALS" and clear out the value under "LoginTabId" for your portal.  That should put your login back to the default behaviour of taking you to a dynamically-generated page for login.

For the record:
The script call to go to the Login page is:  __doPostBack('dnn$dnnLOGIN$cmdLogin','')  ...and you would need a JS console like the one offered in IE DevBar or DebugBar in order to execute the call while browsing your portal: http://www.eguanasolutions.com/DNN_Blog/EntryID/19.aspx

Good luck!

dont forget to restart the application (by touching web.config, or by recycling the app pool) after you changed the entry in the portals table. This value is cached by dnn, and the new value will only be used after the application is restart
