Password Protection
This free PHP script allows you to protect your web pages with a simple login and password. Instead of linking directly to your main page, visitors must pass through this login script first.
How It Works
Edit the password-protect.php
script and update:
$users
: your usernames, passwords, and emails$protect
: the page to protect$owner
,$owneremail
: your details$url
: the login page location
Important: For better security, place login.html
and protected.html
in a folder outside the public www
or public_html
directory. If you keep them public, users might bypass the protection by directly visiting protected.html
.
Installation
- Upload the files to your server in ASCII mode.
- Edit
password-protect.php
with your login details. - Set file permissions (CHMOD) to
755
if needed. - Test with your browser.
