Probably a bug into the access control part 
Auteur : Axel Hello Stefano,
WSX5Pro v2022.1.4
Long time ago I have recreated my home page by a copy /paste of original index and renamed the old index page
I have created a new private acces page configured like this
And my access control is configured like below for the user
and for the parameters
I have a logout object (in fact tested with the 2 objects) into the private page to close the page and when I go back, systematically the return is done the the old index page
And the return is
You can test it here:
https://wsx5plugins.afsoftware.fr and at the bottom of page
Login/password are: ***/password
I have remove upload, preview directories, reload WSX5, used the CTRL+Preview and export ALL files. Nothing!!!
If you have an idea of my error, otherwise I can send to you the project to investigate
Thanks for your help
Enjoy!
Axel
Hello Axel
I believe the issue is related to the fact that for the moment, there is no official way to remove the Homepage as Homepage:
The homepage will always be the one with the House symbol on the left, even though you configure a different page to be exactly the same.
The logout will still bring you to the base homepage, which is that one.
In order to solve this, I would recommend inserting a redirect code into the old index.html that brings you to the new one so that this becomes automatic.
Try this out and let me know if it works
Thank you

Hello Stefano,
It was me feeling too. To have changed the home page was the cause of this issue.
So for me it is a bug into the software. Why ??? because nothing has been done into the software to avoid to do this operation. So rename and change the home page is possible into the software but after some functionnalities are not really supported.
A redirection is obviously possible through an html line, but I consider that this workaround should be temporary.
Please can you said me if this issue will be fixed asap.
And I hope that the answer will not be the same like Federico few weeks ago: "You are alone to ask, so the fix will not be done..."
if the home page can be renamed, it is auhtorized by the software... So said after no supported is not acceptable.
Thank you
Enjoy!

Hello Stefano,
Like I said previsouly your workaround is not acceptable and not running fine.
Because even with a redirection and timer to 0, the old page is displayed 1s before to goback automatically for the index.php
So for a Pro solution is not Pro. And I paid for a Pro solution.
The solution for the dev team is below
Just need to fix the Login&Logout object to add a field to customize the return page after logout
I am waiting a fix on this issue.
Thank you
Enjoy!

Test it by yourself the visual of the redirection in place now !
Hello Axel
I understand what you mean but I must confirm that this is indeed not a bug.
Since the earliest versions of WebSite X5, the homepage has always been unchangeable, and the house icon marks the homepage. This is not a recent mistake or change in the software but it's the way it's always supposed to work.
The fact that you can change the file name so that the server can open a different index file makes no difference in the software logic since the page with the house symbol will always be marked as the homepage and all internal logic will refer to that as the homepage.
I can confirm that the possibility of completely changing the homepage in the software is something that will be discussed internally as to expand the functionality of the software so that it might be possible to configure a different page as the homepage, but this doesn't not mean that the situation is generated by an error in the program that needs to be fixed
As of now, and the same for all previous versions, the correct way to configure the homepage differently is to copy the Objects from another page to the real homepage. This is the only way this can be done at the moment

Hello Stefano,
Always not agree.
The software does not control the copy/paste of the home page. It's a bug or bad dev of controls
And I give you a solution to fix this one into the Login&Logout object. no news !!!
Always Incomedia does want to do some effort because I am alone....on this issue....
And the software authorizes to change the homepage like I done.
But now it is not supported by Incomedia.
I publish this post now to be public to inform the community of Incomedia attitude.
And I repeat that your html redirection workaround does not works properly (explained before)
I PAID UPDATE PROTECTION For a Pro VERSION
Enjoy!

And pleae don't said me that it is not possible to block the copy/past of the home page.
You can do that for the special pages !!!!!
Hi Axel
The redirect solution is penalized by google and should be a limited in time solution.

Hello Marius,
Redirection Incomedia solution/workaround is not acceptable because there is a micro delay to switch to the good page.
But the copy/paste which is authorized by the software and after Incomedia said that it is not possible to do that, It is not accpatable too because it is possible to do it into the GUI !!!! but you do not ...
Like you said previously, many time lost for nothing and found bugs or behaviour.
So for me the possibility to copy/paste the home page is an opened bug ! if it is not auhtorized.
Hummmm
Enjoy!

Hello Axel
I would like to explain this again
Since the first version, you've never been able to change the homepage. This is the way the software works by choice and for this specific reason, it can't be considered an error.
I surely agree that it could be different and it could be improved, but right now, this is so by design.
As I mentioned in my previous post though:
"I can confirm that the possibility of completely changing the homepage in the software is something that will be discussed internally as to expand the functionality of the software so that it might be possible to configure a different page as the homepage"
Which basically means that there's a good chance that this will be improved in a future version
I reman available here

Hey Stefano,
You said :
and
"I can confirm that the possibility of completely changing the homepage in the software is something that will be discussed internally as to expand the functionality of the software so that it might be possible to configure a different page as the homepage"
So the first version is probably the v13 or less... (7/8 years !!!) And today after long internally discussions the verdict is not ready !!!!
More +6 yrs to decide if possible or not to change homepage!!!!
Please Stefano !!! try to find other reply.... !!!!!
Which basically means that there's a good chance that this will be improved in a future version
Should be after +6 yrs !!!!!! do you think that your internally meetings are useful at Incomedia !!!!!
Actually it is possible to copy/paste the home page, to change the name of the home page for other one and the software does not works normally by renaming the home page by a new one.
It not forbidden by the software to do that but forbidden by Incomedia...
and it is not a BUG...
are your serious ??????
Again Stefano, you and you colleagues pls try to do more pro, because many poor replies are not pro.... customer needs to to do that because not supported... does it a pro reply ??????
Enjoy!
Axel
