I would appreciate advice, please. I would like to add pages to my website via login, and not otherwise accessible. I'm using caspio to create the login/members database, how do I restrict access to pages the other side of login?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Hi Divsec,

Your need is far, far more complex. You have a different password for each member. At some time, you will probably allow different page accesses to different members. Members forget or you have set up a password expiry period so members need to access resets and lock out functions. The list goes on.
At a high level, any unauthorised access to any web page should divert to a login page. Once a session has been initiated, a logged-on member can access their pages until the session is expired (browser close, log off, timeout).
The divert and other password management pages would have to be PHP. caspio should provide these hooks otherwise you have a lot of coding ahead.

Thank you Acorn, lovely answer. What I'm thinking of doing is using caspio to do all the individual password work. Then getting casio log on to point and complete directory logon. Just got to work out the last bit. I can get caspio to open a specified page on success, now I need to learn the code to fill in the htaccess logon. Should keep me quiet for a day or two, thanks again
