How do I modify the core code to allow custom redirection after deletion checks


To modify the core code to allow custom redirection after deletion checks in Joomla, you can use the `onUserBeforeDelete` event in a Joomla plugin. Here is an example of how you can use this event to redirect unauthorized users to a custom page:

php
class PlgUserExample extends JPlugin
{
    public function onUserBeforeDelete($user)
    {
        // Check if the user is unauthorized
        if (!$user->authorized) {
            // Redirect to a custom page
            $url = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=myview', false);
            $app = JFactory::getApplication();
            $app->redirect($url);
        }
    }
}

This plugin will check if the user is authorized before deletion. If the user is not authorized, it will redirect them to a custom page specified by the `$url` variable.

Example Code for Redirecting After Deletion Checks

Here is an example of how you can use the `onUserAfterDelete` event to redirect users to a custom page after deletion checks:

php
class PlgUserExample extends JPlugin
{
    public function onUserAfterDelete($user, $success, $msg)
    {
        // Redirect to a custom page
        $url = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=myview', false);
        $app = JFactory::getApplication();
        $app->redirect($url);
    }
}

This plugin will redirect users to a custom page after the deletion checks are completed.

Example Code for Redirecting to a Custom Page After Profile Edit Submission

Here is an example of how you can use the `onUserAfterSave` event to redirect users to a custom page after profile edit submission:

php
class PlgUserExample extends JPlugin
{
    public function onUserAfterSave($user, $isNew, $success, $msg)
    {
        // Check if the user is not new
        if (!$isNew) {
            // Redirect to a custom page
            $url = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=myview', false);
            $app = JFactory::getApplication();
            $app->redirect($url);
        }
    }
}

This plugin will redirect users to a custom page after they have updated their profile information.

Example Code for Redirecting to a Custom Page After User Deletion

Here is an example of how you can use the `onUserAfterDelete` event to redirect users to a custom page after user deletion:

php
class PlgUserExample extends JPlugin
{
    public function onUserAfterDelete($user, $success, $msg)
    {
        // Redirect to a custom page
        $url = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=myview', false);
        $app = JFactory::getApplication();
        $app->redirect($url);
    }
}

This plugin will redirect users to a custom page after a user has been deleted.

Example Code for Redirecting to a Custom Page After Profile Edit Submission Without a Plugin

Here is an example of how you can redirect users to a custom page after profile edit submission without using a plugin:

php
$url = 'index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=myview';
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$app->setUserState('com_users.edit.profile.redirect', $url);

This code sets a user state to redirect to a custom page after profile edit submission.
