i was thinking about this and i think this would make my board alot more secure but i'm not sure how to make it

or is there something like this around

what i am meaning by this is when a admin logs into the admin CP or tries to do something else adminwise, s/he uses one password but on the board to login s/he uses another one.

it would also be good if the username and password that are for the admin stuff has a autologout when they leave the admin CP but the the standard one uses cookies or something

i was thinking about this as well as to the fact that i post from college and well people know i'm a admin they might try and do something to my board

anyway would anyone be able to make this for me? .... Pleeeeease!

easiest thing would be: don't post from college ;)

well, i think you can do this for the Admin CP, but the normal admin functions on the board, uhh, that either is not possible or very hard to code i think...
don't have time now, but maybe someone else can make this one for you... (sorry!)

thats ok i know that this would be a MAJOR hack if it did everything that i said but even if just for the adminCP that would be very good

I know it is often said, but why not just use a .htaccess for your Admin folder?
