How to remove the Destination parameter from an URL in Drupal 7?

Question

I have a blog posts, and when an anonymous user visits it and and clicks the link "Login" or "Register" to post comment (under blog entry), then its url looks like this:

http://example.com/user/login?destination=node/55%23comment-form

But I don't want that parameter of destination here. I just want a simple link like so:

http://example.com/user/login

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Finally I got the solution by using hook_url_outbound_alter in my theme template. I tested it successfully.

function moon_url_outbound_alter(&$path, &$options, $original_path) {
 // here "moon" is my theme, use your own.
  switch ($path) {
  case 'user/login':
  unset( $options['query']['destination'] );
  break;
 }
}

you could create your own block to easily accomplish this:

• create a new block allowing Full HTML, then insert your own link to login / register

<a href="/login">Sign In</a> / <a href="/register">Register</a> to post comments

• limit it's visibility to the content types you want, in the placement you want, and only show for anonymous users

• use some css (or a preprocess function override if you want to get fancy) to hide the existing element

Would the Login Destination module help?
