This is completely simple and quick, I will also explain how it works.

<?php
if ($logged != 'Andre' {
// Add redirects here or whatever
}
?>


What above basically says is if $logged (which is a variable, replace with your own such as cookie or session) is NOT (!=) "Andre" then [Enter PHP executed if that user or content doesn't match the specified].

Enjoy.

Well this is helpful to be people who have experience, but can't help anyone who has no experience with making a register or login.

Awesome. This could be used to make a CM page or something.

^^ Well, they do need to look at how Logins and Registers work.

Well yeah, but what if you're on a mobile network or something?

Even better:

if($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] != 'Put your IP here'{
//redirect
}

Doesn't need a login/register, and it's much harder to hack into

Bad idea if you have a mobile network.
Plus, you have to make your website really hard to hack anyway so therefore, detections via IP is useless.

Really? You dont knowmwhats going on /\ You post on everything

Or you could just use $_GET to make a secret key that only YOU will know.

if(!isset($_GET['key']) || $_GET['key'] != '123abc' die('Sorry. Secret page.';

Maybe even a cookie? ^

I know it sounds odd, but wouldn't that be t least somewhat cool?

Yeah, my method isn't something you should use for a serious production.

---

CoolApps (2014-06-27 17:27:25)

Yeah, using GET is a good idea as well.
I wouldn't use OR for that, your code basically shows the content if you don't have GET in the URL or have the code correct.
BTW, just noticed your code won't work since you don't have {}.

Anyway, use AND (&& ) instead, and use ELSE for that as well.

The reason why I didn't use GET is because it's just for detecting by cookie content, I'm not intending a page which requires GET input for verification.

GuitarBoy's method isn't very secure, because someone can just look into the code using a Chrome debugger or Firebug and see the code.

---

^ And plus, if that was the case then pretty much all sites which use PHP would be "hacked" (SQL database info reviled, able to add your own PHP code etc.)

What are you guys saying?

It's PHP. You can't view it in Firebug or any kind of dev tools panel.

The only thing you DO see are cookies. $_GET is not a cookie. It is part of a query string. And if you have no idea what the correct key for the query is, you'll never be able to access it unless you guess.

And my code DOES work @CoolApps. It is a single-line if statement therefore {} are not required. Try it. It's the same for JavaScript.
