My first contribution to Drupal.org

I made my first contribution to Drupal.org.
It concerns redirections of login. Login destination is a useful module for redirecting users after they logged in. You can redirect depending on roles, but I needed rules depending on which node the visitor was entering from.

My client wanted users to be redirected to various places depending on the current node of the anonymous visitor.
The homepage was node/739 and if the visitor was there when logging in he/she would be redirected to the intranet's homepage: /my. Otherwise it should not redirect. The problem is that two pages were rendered by views, so I had to add more conditions.
Here is my code:
$node = menu_get_object();
// The statement below concerns a view of a map, ie it does not have a node id.
if (arg(0) == 'about' && arg(1) == 'branches' && arg(2) == NULL) {
return arg(0) . "/" . arg(1);
}
// The statement below concerns a view of a city (arg(2) is the country in the path and arg(3) is the city) in a map, ie it does not have a node id.
elseif (arg(0) == 'about' && arg(1) == 'branches') {
return arg(0) . "/" . arg(1) . "/" . arg(2) . "/" . arg(3);
}
// The statement below concerns another view which path is /success-stories. It does not have a node id.
elseif (arg(0) == 'success-stories') {
return arg(0) . "/" . arg(1);
}
// The statement below redirects to the intranet homepage (/my) if the login takes place at the homepage (which in this case is node/739)
elseif ($node->nid == 739) {
return 'my';
}
// The last statement: if none of the first three conditions are valid then do not redirect!
else {
return 'node' . "/" . $node->nid;
}
Hope you find this useful.
