Basically this searches the user role array to see if that user has the specified role "initial signup." If it does, then they get redirected to the "registration-success" page. If not (this assumes they're an authenticated user), they get redirected to the "welcome" page.</p> <pre><code>global $user; if (in_array(&quot;initial signup&quot;, array_values($user-&gt;roles))) { return &#39;registration-success&#39;; } else { return &#39;welcome&#39;; }</code></pre> http://forum.werockyourweb.com/drupal/drupal-php-check-user-role#post-436 Fri, 23 Jul 2010 11:36:40 +0000 DrupalJunkie 436@http://forum.werockyourweb.com/ <p>Is there a way to check a user's role using a php snippet in Drupal 6.x? I basically want to redirect the user on login based on their role. I have an "initial signup" role that gets created immediately after signup, and upgraded to "authenticated user" when they confirm their email address (to prevent spam). </p>
