hello everyone,

My wish is to assign with parameters included in the url the role for my visitor.

I have 3 modules for 3 different roles.

So if you visit the page with role1 you will only see module1 role2 mosule2....

My goal is to assign this role with the value posted in my URL only with code in my ASCX.

here is my actual code to get my parameters in my URL (in my aspx) :

<%
    Dim key
    Dim role
    key = Request.QueryString("key")
    role= Request.QueryString("role")
%>

tabid=20&role=role1 will only display module1.

I just want the ascx code to make DNN believe that the visitor is connected as a user of the role passed in the URL.

Hope i'm clear in my explanations.

Thank you

A simple way is to have the module hide the "main" content. Wrap it in a div and set the visibility to false when the role or key isn't what it's supposed to be.

<div runat="server" ID="divMain" visibility='<%= Request.QueryString("role") IS NOT NOTHING AND Request.Querystring("role") == "1" %>'
''Your content here
</div>

That is off the to pof my head, and I normally have to try something 5 or 6 times when I'm doing server variables before I get it right. :)
 

If you set the modules to have no container, then they will never know there is anything else there.

 

 

You can't have DNN actually obey roles like that since a change in the URL changes the role - Not very secure.
I'd investigate if some combination of pages and security roles could do what you are trying to do and keep the content secure for the individuals who should have access to it.
