Hi All,

I want to create a disclaimer page, so that all the user need to click an accept button to be directed to normail drupal front page?
The front page has nothing but a disclaim and 2 buttons, accpte or deny.

I am thinking about using legal or front module.

Am I right or there exists other module I can try.

Any suggestions arre greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

Legal module is purely for

Legal module is purely for registered users. It doesn't souind like these are registered users?

Front page is just for changing the front page from what it sounds like; ie. differing looking front page look, feel then rest of site. Not sure how it acts so can't be too certain.

I don't think either of those two sound like what you're wanting.

Not sure if there's any modules that do that; look a bit more would be my suggestion.

Or make a module to do it

ie.

<?php

function modulename_init() { // called at the begining of each page load
if (!$_COOKIE['personhassaidyes']) drupal_goto('some/confirmation/page');
}

function modulename_menu() {
// set
$items['some/confirmation/page'] = array(
// set up confirmation yet, type MENU_CALLBACK, page callback drupal_get_form, page arguments => array('some_confirmation_page')
)
}

function some_confirmation_page(){
$form= array();
$form['text'] = array('#type'=>'markup','#value'=>'You wanna?!');
$form['yes'] = array('#type'=>'submit','#value'=>'yes');
$form['no'] = array('#type'=>'submit','#value'=>'no');
}

function some_confirmation_page_submit($form,&$form_state){
if ($form_state['values']['op']=='yes') {
// set the php cookie
drupal_goto();
}
}

If you have a diclaimer page or a terms and conditions page on the bottom of a website, is it as effective legally as to make the user click a box? I have a legal website here and just want to make sure I am covered

Legally effective?

If you mean legally effective, then I doubt it. If you mean controlling user actions, then it probably is - that is, those notices are rarely ever read or followed.

Terms of use module

Try this:
http://drupal.org/project/terms_of_use

configure it to be available during registration, so that anyone joining the site has to either read the terms and check the box sayng that they have read the terms.

*note - be sure to create the terms of use node with the disclaimer content first and then configure the module.

And, for legal reasons, make sure the content type is set up with versions turned on.
