Secure Pages Manager
The Secure Pages Manager allows you to create password protected pages across your website. You can then create accounts to give certain users access to the secure pages.
Accessing Secure Pages Manager
To access the Secure Pages Manager from the back end of the i:Create Content Management System (i:Create):
- Select “More+” from the i:Create Utility Bar located at the top of the page
- Choose “Secure Pages Manager” from the dropdown menu
From here you can create secure pages and add users and user groups.
Create a secured page
A secured page requires a website visitor to log in to view the contents of the page. It is also possible
to secure an entire directory.
To secure one of the pages on your website, you need to:
- Select "Secured Items" from the top menu in the Secure Pages Manager
- Select the "Add Item" button
- In the "Page URL" field, enter URL address for the page you want to secure
- Select the "Add" button to complete the process
If you don't know the URL address for the web page that you'd like to secure, you can select the "Browse" button to find the page in your website. To secure an entire directory, you need to select the "Select Entire Directory" checkbox.
The page will now be added to the list of secured items. If you'd like to edit or remove a secure page, select the "Edit" or "Delete" button next to the page URL address from the "Secured Items" screen.
Please note
You will need to maintain a list of authorized users for each secured page or directory on your website.
Add users
Once you've set up a secured page, you can create users and give them a password to access the content on the page. To add a user to a secured page, you need to:
- Select "Users" from the top menu in the Secure Pages Manager
- This will take you to a list of all users that have access to secure pages on your website
- Select the "Add User" button
This will take you to the "Add User" screen where you will need to provide a username and password for each user you'd like to give access to the secured page. You'll need to complete the following fields:
- Username
- Password
- Confirm Password
- Select the checkbox next to the ULR address for the secured page that you'd like to give this user permission to access
- Select the "Add" button to complete the process
Please note
The user profiles created during this process are completely independent of the user’s i:Create account. Make sure that you provide the new user with the username and password that you set as well as a link to the secured page so that they are able to access the content.
Adding users to a group
There are three ways to add a user to a group:
- Select the "Add access" checkbox next to the name of the group that you'd like to add the user to when you are first creating the new user
- From the "Users" screen, select the "Edit" button next to the user you'd like to add to the group. This will open the "Edit User" screen and you can select the checkbox next to the group you'd like to add the user to
- From the "Groups" screen, you can edit each group and add new users from the list of users
Create groups
You can create a group of users and give the entire group access to a secured page. To create a group, you need to:
- Select "Groups" from the top menu in the Secure Pages Manager
- In the "Name" field, enter the name of the group
- Select the URL address for the secured pages you'd like to give the group access to from the "Add Access to Secured Items" list
- From the "Add Users" list, select the checkbox next to each of the users you want to add to the group
- Select the "Add" button to complete the process
Logging in to a secured page
To login to a secure page, the user needs to enter their username and password and select the "Log On" button. Remember that you will have to provide registered users with their credentials as they do not create their own accounts. The user name will always be the full email address provided.
