II don't know much PHP and the syntax is probably wrong, but should be something like: </p> <pre><code>$ip_address = $_SERVER[&#39;REMOTE_ADDR&#39;]; if($ip_address &gt;=&#39;192.x.x.x&#39;) AND ($ip_address &lt;= 192..x.x.x) { die(&quot;you don&#39;t have permission......&quot;); }</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/securing-admin-panel#post-18056 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 21:21:52 +0000 AcEw1zArD 18056@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Im guessing it would be fairly easy to adapt that code to allow an IP block through, IE 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.254? </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/securing-admin-panel#post-18047 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 13:59:47 +0000 yuniar 18047@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>A simple workaround to restrict the login page to be available for certain ip address is by modifying the index.php file under your machform folder.<br /> Search around line 10 for this code:</p> <pre><code>require(&#39;includes/init.php&#39;);</code></pre> <p>Below that line, you can add this code:</p> <pre><code>$ip_address = $_SERVER[&#39;REMOTE_ADDR&#39;]; if($ip_address != &#39;192.168.1.1&#39;){ die(&quot;You don&#39;t have permission to access this page&quot;); }</code></pre> <p>Change the above ip address with your own of course. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/securing-admin-panel#post-18027 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 00:30:29 +0000 williamansley 18027@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>It is not clear to me what you want to do. Why isn't the built-in password protection of the Admin panel sufficient for you? </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/securing-admin-panel#post-18021 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:15:47 +0000 TFteam 18021@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I have installed the form under <a href="http://www.mydomain.com/form" rel="nofollow">www.mydomain.com/form</a> and I tried using htpassword trick to secure this directory. However, by doing this, it seems to lock up ALL my forms (not only the admin panel). Is there a way to secure the admin panel so no one can access to it easily? At least a IP-restriction or some sort will be nice. </p> <p>Thanks. </p>
