Different Drupal front page from different country.

Question

Hi, I have a drupal site, and i want to redirecting visitors to a different page based on the country. I have this code:

require_once "Net/GeoIP.php";
$geoip = Net_GeoIP::getInstance("Net/GeoIP.dat");
try {
    $geocode = $geoip->lookupCountryCode($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
} catch (Exception $e) {
    $geocode = 'EN';
}
switch ($geocode) {
    case 'HU':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/hu');
        break;
    case 'GB':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/en');
        break;
    case 'AT':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/at');
        break;
    case 'CY':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/cy');
        break;
    case 'DE':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/de');
        break;
    case 'NL':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/nl');
        break;
    case 'CH':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/ch');
        break;
    case 'ES':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/es');
        break;
    case 'US':
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/us');
        break;
    default:
        header('Location: http://www.example.com/en');
}

This works well on plain php file. How can i this in drupal? How can i redirect the visitors to the proper node?

Answer 1

You may want to use http://drupal.org/project/ip2locale

It supports GeoIP.

Answer 2

I don't understand neither why not using an existing solution but still: have you tried putting your snippet inside page.tpl.php? Just make sure the path to the required library is correct. You might wanna put Net/GeoIP.php inside your sites/all/libraries folder and thus change require_once "Net/GeoIP.php" to require_once "../../libraries/Net/GeoIP.php". This is assuming that your page.tpl.php is located inside sites/all/themes/yourtheme/
