6.1 Code snippets

The following code can be put on any page to display the latest news - as long as the page is saved with the file extension “.php”. The default setting is to display the 10 latest entries, but you can modify this number in the "news_entries.php" file:

<?php include "news_entries.php"; ?>

You can also create new admin-protected pages by placing the following code at the top of each page file you want protected:

<?php
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['user'])) {
    header('Location: login.php');
}
?>
