Yes you can direct users to a different page. That is not the way static pages was made but there are at lease three different ways you could do it, depending on your php expertise.

Way 1) Only show links to pages user can see -- this can be done with my menu plugin.

Way 2) Make the static page a php page and use a little php to check permissions and display a message if the user does not have access. You could use SEC_hasAccess to do this.

Way 3) Modify index.php in the staticpages folder under public_html to check access and display a message if they do not have access.

If you want to try 2 or 3 tell me and I can offer some more specific advise.

Thanks for the fast and very great help. index.php works well.However it was not whole which i searched, therefore had i, owing to the good preliminary work, the code further amended.It looks now in such a way:

} else {
    $retval = COM_siteHeader('menu');
	$retval .= COM_startBlock($LANG_LOGIN[1]);
    $login = new Template($_CONF['path_layout'] . 'submit');
    $login->set_file (array ('login'=>'submitloginrequired.thtml'));
    $login->set_var ('login_message', $LANG_LOGIN[2]);
    $login->set_var ('site_url', $_CONF['site_url']);
    $login->set_var ('lang_login', $LANG_LOGIN[3]);
    $login->set_var ('lang_newuser', $LANG_LOGIN[4]);
    $login->parse ('output', 'login');
    $retval .= $login->finish ($login->get_var('output'));
    $retval .= COM_endBlock();
    $retval .= COM_siteFooter();
}

echo $retval;

Works fine and i am lucky.Without the assistance it would not have been possible.

I look forward to new so great Plugins of you.
