[SOLVED] Using Ion Auth to secure website section

Hi, everyone.

I'm trying to secure the entire members' area of a website using Ion Auth. I have managed blocking the default page (the index() function) in the following way:

PHP Code:

class Minside extends CI_Controller // Members' area to view orders, change user details and view public profile
{
    public function index() // Loads automatically
    {
        if (!$this->ion_auth->logged_in()) // Check to see if user is logged in
        {
            echo 'You are not logged in.'; // TODO: Replace with login form
        }
        else // If user is logged in
        {
        $data['title'] = 'Min side'; // Set page title
        $data['li1class'] = 'active'; // Highlight menu item
        $data['li2class'] = '';
        $data['li3class'] = '';
        $this->load->view('header', $data);
        $this->load->view('minside', $data); // Members' area menu
        $this->load->view('kjop_og_anmeldelser'); // Default page
        $this->load->view('footer');
        }
    }
    
    public function offentlig_profil() // Public profile
    {
        $data['title'] = 'Offentlig profil';
        $data['li1class'] = '';
        $data['li2class'] = 'active';
        $data['li3class'] = '';
        
        $this->load->view('header', $data);
        $this->load->view('minside', $data);
        $this->load->view('offentlig_profil');
        $this->load->view('footer');
    } 


If the user isn't logged in, they can't access example.com/minside. But they can still access example.com/minside/offentlig_profil.

How can i block access to the entire /minside website section without using the same if-statement in all the functions?

Make a constructor and try this..

Code:

public function __construct() {
        parent::__construct();
        if (!$this->ion_auth->logged_in()) // Check to see if user is logged in
        {
            redirect('login/index');
        }
        
}

That worked, tapan.thapa. Thanks a lot for your quick and helpful reply. I deeply appreciate the effort.
