Hi,

I installed the script to password protect the website, and it works great. I was wondering if there was a way to setup a script so that after login to the website, a user could click a button, and depending on what username and password he entered, it will redirect him to his personal page. Please let me know if you need more explanation on what I am trying to do.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you.
I found a post at http://www.xavierforum.com/about4238.html, and it was helpfull. So now I am trying to figure out how to have users login twice: once to the main site, and then with another set of usernames and passwords to personalized pages. The first login to the main site works great. However, the second login within the website, which will redirect users to personal pages is giving me problems. I tried creating a second login page like members1.php, and placed a code at the top of the page

<? include("protection.php"); ?>

<?
if (file_exists("$loginname.php"))
include("$loginname.php");
else if (file_exists("$loginuser.php"))
include("$loginuser.php");
else
echo "No user file found! - $loginuser";
?>

I get an error

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /path/members1.php:3) in /path/codelock.php(3) : eval()'d code(1) : eval()'d code on line 132

Please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I'm not really an expert at this software, but...

It seems that rather than having certain people login twice it would be easier to create a new group of users and create a link to your member page that could check if the user is a member of that group and if they are allow them access.

The way I understand it both usergroups would have access to the pages with the normal php include header, but only the group you add your members to in the admin would be able to get into the member pages that would have a different header.

Hope this helps,

Don

There is a way to do individual personal pages for each user too, but if its a section for a group of users a new user group would be easier than multiple pages. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to automatically redirect users to a certain page after they log in so they either have to go to it directly or follow a link that others will not be able to open.

I know how to set up different user groups. However it is not what I need to do for the website. I need to password protect the whole website with one set of usernames and password. After the users log in they will click on the button which will bring them to another user login page. At that login, they will enter their personal usernames and passwords that will redirect them to their personal pages.

Appreciate your help!

Ok I tried.

I don't think you can actually redirect the way you describe.

Bylla,

Please help!!!!
I saw in the post http://www.xavierforum.com/about4238.html, that it is possible to redirect users to their personal pages according to their username and password. All I need to know is how to set up double logon. One for the whole website, and another one from within, to users personal pages according to their username and password. Please view more detailed description before this post.

Thanks in advance.

You know it seems to be working now. the only problem I am having is at the second logon page. After I enter username(test) and password(test) and it redirects me to the corresponding page (test.php). Test.php page shows above the logon page. Is there a way to hide the logon page?

This is not possible, since it's too out-dated way to handle unique member pages.

They way to give people access to individual pages are something like this:You can of course also replace include("$loginuser.php"); with your page directly in the first script if you like.
