Description
This module allows site administrators to control access to specific pages
by configuring a passphrase. This module makes it easy for site admins to share
private content with anonymous visitors. Access control is done by path.
This module makes it possible to not force visitors to sign-up or register and
still be able to access private content.
This module will only protect pages that are accessible to anonymous users. It
will not have any effect on authenticated users.
Has no effect on cached pages either.
Sample use cases:
- Picture gallery accessible by invitation only.
- CV or Resume available online to anonymous visitors by invitation only.
- Investor Proposal that should only be accessed by invitation only.
- Products catalogue for VIP clients only.
To handle these special cases you need to control access to those pages. This
can be done with this module.
Installation Instructions
- Enable the module as usual.
- Go to Configuration -> Passphrase Protected Pages
- Enter the path to your page, the passphrase that you are going to share with your trusted visitors and the session duration.
- Save
Now logout and go to the protected page. You should be prompted with a form to
enter the passphrase. Once you enter the correct passphrase, it will redirect
you to the proper page.
To unprotect the page, simply login as admin and remove the entry on the config page.
