The "J1.5" namespace is an archived namespace. This page contains information for a Joomla! version which is no longer supported. It exists only as a historical reference, it will not be improved and its content may be incomplete and/or contain broken links.
This page is under migration to Joomla 2.5 new plugin trigger methods
In a standard installation of Joomla! 2.5 we have several predefined events which, when triggered, call functions in the associated plugins.
The user events are divided into two parts. First we have the events used while authentication of a user takes place:
- onUserLogin (on Joomla 1.5: onLoginUser)
- onUserLogout (on Joomla 1.5: onLogoutUser)
- onUserAuthenticate (on Joomla 1.5: onAuthenticate)
- onUserAuthorisationFailure (on Joomla 1.5: onAuthenticateFailure)
Second we have the events triggered during user management:
- onUserBeforeSave (on Joomla 1.5: onBeforeStoreUser)
- onUserAfterSave (on Joomla 1.5: onAfterStoreUser)
- onUserBeforeDelete (on Joomla 1.5: onBeforeDeleteUser)
- onUserAfterDelete (on Joomla 1.5: onAfterDeleteUser)
