Hiding a site that's in development
22 April 2011 at 3:20am
Hi, I'm sure someone must know this.
I want to hide a site that's in development from search engines and users while the site is in developer mode.
Is there a way to redirect any visitors to a given page when the environment type = dev & they aren't logged in?
I've tried this in _config.php in /mysite/
if (Director::isDev() & !Member::currentUserID()) {
Director::redirect(Director::baseURL());
}No worky.
Thanks.

you could put a htaccess authentication...

<% if CurrentMember %>
...
<% end_if %>

We use BasicAuth::protect_entire_site(); when in test mode. This requires a username and password from your SS database to see the site.

Thanks willr, that's a heavy duty way of doing it.
Just noticed this though, setting the access level on the root of the site to logged in users only sorts my issue. Permissions inherit all the way down, also means we can set a single page access for a client to check out, and make the others inaccessible.
Thanks swaiba, will check out the htaccess method.

Nice!
'protect_entire_site' - totally new to me, wonder how I could have missed it all this time...
