Restrict access to the Knowledgebase Page

[jeffmchristensen]

We are trying to restrict access to Knowledgebase page  to only users that are logged in.

How is this possible through WHMCS hooks or is .htaccess a better method to use?

What would be the code used to implement this control.

you can make articles private so that only logged in users can read them...

Ticking the Private checkbox will mean this article is not visible to visitors so clients must be logged in to read it.

or do you want to go further than that ?

Yes but I found this hook and implemented it.

<?php
if (!defined("WHMCS"))
   die("This file cannot be accessed directly");

function hook_ForceEveryoneToLogin($vars) {

   $clientID = intval($_SESSION['uid']);
   $adminID = intval($_SESSION['adminid']);

   if ($adminID===0){
       if (!in_array($vars['filename'], array("login","dologin","clientarea","pwreset", "register", "index", "submitticket")) && $clientID===0){
           header("Location: register.php");
           exit;
       }
   }

}
add_hook("ClientAreaPage", 1, "hook_ForceEveryoneToLogin");

It will redirect all pages to the login page excluding the "filename" array.

Thanks
