1. Create a Base controller, MY_Controller, that extends CI_Controller;
2. Create Admin_controller that extends MY_Controller;
3. Create the method Admin_controller::isLoggedIn() and add appropriate logic;
4. Create Admin_base controller that extends Admin_controller;
5. Create Admin_base::login() that displays the login view and handles the form response;
6. Have every OTHER (not login()) method within Admin_base check for: if(FALSE === $this->isLoggedIn()) { // redirect to login }
7. Create many admin controllers that extend Admin_controller and handle your functionality - "class Admin_customer extends Admin_controller {}"
8. Have the constructor of all of the non Admin_base controllers that extend Admin_Controller check for if(FALSE === $this->isLoggedIn() { // redirect to login }}
9. Profit.
