Summary0007726: Direct users from index.php to login page when not logged in
Description

It would be nice if when a non-logged in user goes to index.php (eg, www.mantisbt.org/bugs/) and anonymous access is enabled it would redirect them to login_page.php instead of the default page.

Additional Information

This can be done by simply adding "&& !current_user_is_anonymous()" to the check in index.php.

On trackers such as this one where anonymous reporting is disabled there really isn't a need for this, however on a Mantis tracker I am running we have anonymous reporting/commenting enabled. While creating an account is optional, it is encouraged, and visitors go ahead a submit a bug without knowing that they can sign up. Also, sometimes admins/devs comment on things or file a new bug without realizing they haven't logged in yet (I did it earlier today :).

TagsNo tags attached.

Having anonymous users be able to login issues is not a scenario we recommend or optimize for. So marking this as won't fix.
