Title: Admin directory unavailable for anyone but user #1
Post by: CodeALot on November 22, 2023, 05:29:35 PM

I'd like to shield the complete /admin from anyone but the actual superadmin. It's OK if they can see the login page, but as soon as they log in with user credentials other than superadmin, I want to kick them to the frontend.

Any suggestions?

Google how to protect folder using .htaccess and password.

When you type .../admin you will be prompted for password

Hi, thanks, I thought of that but hoped there would be a more 'elegant' way possible without double logins :)

do you have registered users or the possibility for a frontend login / registration?

Yes they are all registered and able to login. This is only used to grant access to certain parts of the website, not for admin stuff.
