I've looked and I must be missing it. Here's the concept, vistor comes to the site. They register and are given two options for a homepage. They select the format they want and when they come page or if they select "home" it take them to that particular page always (or at least until they select the other format).

Is this possible in dnn? If so, how?

There isn't a way to do this right out of the box. There are several ways to do it.

1. EASY: Take a look at the Redirect Toolkit module from dnnsharp.com. You can define a redirect (from the home page) baseed on Profile Properties, Query String parameters, and a host of other things.

2. SLIGHTLY HARDER: Create a custom script that looks up a profile property and redirects based on that. It would be quite easy to do it using the Razor Host module. You really don't need to know anything about modules, but it would help to know a tiny bit about programming -- at least enough to look at a sample script and modify it. Use Response.Redirect to take you to the page you want. (I will see if I can work up a simple example ...)

Here is a simple Razor script



This script checks a Profile Property named "TestProperty." If it has a value of "Hello" the the page redirects to one page. If not, it redirects to another page.

If I were doing this for real, I'd probably include an option to not redirect at all (say if TestProperty is null or an empty string). I'd probably also use the NavigateURL method available in DotNetNuke.Common. There are a number of different overloads that you can use to specify a page in the site. You can use other methods to get TabId from page name, etc.

Note that once you put this on a page, it will start redirecting. That might make it difficult to get to the page to edit the script. You can have another page with RazorHost and no active script to edit. Or, you could include a querystring variable which, if set, would skip the redirection.
