Hi
I have a php script that displays some information to members of our site and which I'd like to protect so that it cannot be run by everyone. The script is called by ajax.
Is there a simple way to use the authentification done by contao ?
Thank you in advance
Aïda
You cannot protect a php script using contao without changing the php file to include, like you ask, the authentication done by contao. It does require running part of the contao code.
I've done this, but when replying I realized the sourcecode is not on this laptop, so I'll post it later this weekend ;)
As promised "later this weekend" here is the code.
*edit*
The code proved impossible to post because the forum kept crashing. I attached it in my next reply as a compressed php file because attaching php is not allowed. Sure hope this is what you are looking for considering the trouble it took me ;)
Thank you Vera for your reply even if you have not been allowed to put the code :(
Can someone help ?
Hi aida,
If you have a member section on your site you can include the script using a module of type "Custom HTML" with file insert tag "{{file::myscript.php}}". The script file must be located in Contaos "/templates" folder.Quote:

Thank you xchs
The thing is that the script is called by ajax. I'm not sure of how to set up your solution ?
For some reason or the other the forum crashes whenever I try to add the code. So I attached a file. You need to add the contents to the top of the php file so it cannot be run if you do not have the correct permissions.
I am pretty sure this is not the best or preferred way to do this. So if someone would like to improve on my reply, please do so! :D
Thank you Vera !
