Password protect non vb pages (e.g. for admin pages) · **Released**: 05-08-2004

This is not really a hack just a handy piece of code. You can use this to password protect individual pages. The username and passwords are taken from the vBulletin database.

Currently this is set to allow only usergroupsid 5 and 6 (admin and super moderators) through [example use as admin area protection]. This could be changed though to allow anyone through if registered, or for specific usergroups etc.

The code is in authvb.php
An example is give in authtest.php

Hope this is of use to some people. If there's some interest I'll tidy it up a bit.

This is along the line of what I wanted, although I didn't quite get it to work. I got as far as:

The information you entered does not match our records.

I guess it isn't quite contacting the correct table, but I can't quite figure it. I tried the change suggested by JumpD in post #20, it brought up errors on the lines changed.

It seems to only give you one chance at giving the correct information and then you must open a new window to attempt to access the directory again.

Does this work with 3.5.4? How hard to get it working with secondary usergroups instead of primary?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
