Hey fellas,

I have a php file with a form that appends to a CSV file on the server. It’s at http://example.com/stuffs/my-db-entry-form.php and in that same folder is the mydb.csv file.

I want to restrict access to this PHP file and make it accessible only to users who are logged into WordPress (as those guys will be doing the actual work filling in the form with new database entries).

What do I have to do to put my-db-entry-form.php “inside” WordPress and restrict access to it?

It would be nicer if you installed a plugin like “code markup” to display source code more elegantly. Anyway, thanks for the info. I just happen to need this for a plugin.

Sorry for my poor english
How to add content for non-admin?
I want to add stat tracking code that only works when visitors visit my pages, not me
so it won’t track my own visit

Put an exclamation mark before current_user_can. So, it becomes !current_user_can.

Many of you who have commented here will be interested in this new plugin called Role Scoper (http://agapetry.net/news/introducing-role-scoper/). It’s an absolute God-send!! It adds to the functionality of Role Manager in ways that replace about a dozen other plugins. It’s in public beta, with little in the way of instructions, but if you’ve ever struggled with wanting to customize your users roles and capabilities at a much deeper level, you should really look into this one! (I did NOT create it, I just found it and am using it.)

The use of User levels has been deprecated since WordPress V2.0 – it’s there for backwards compatibility, but there’s a better way to do it…

Have a look at the Role Manager plugin here:
http://www.im-web-gefunden.de/wordpress-plugins/role-manager/

This allows you to create new “capabilities”, and assign them to User roles (you can also create new User roles).

So, for your example, you could create a capability called “view-stats”, and assign it to the “Administrator” role.
Then in your code, use the following:

etc.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for this nice tutorial.
I was wondering if you could help me with this:
I want to make the users who have Author role to just view or edit their own posts. I know how to make them edit their posts, but the problem is that i don’t want them to view others post in the admin panel, also i don’t want to give them control with any comments.
Your help is greatly appreciated,
Noura
