2 questions security and php code

Question

1st how can I restrict my whole website accept the first page(home page) to unregistered users?

 

2nd Iam trying to implement chatroom into g2a where would I put php code? I do realize that costume pages only take html code. When I do ridirect to index.php it opens new page outside q2a theme.

Answer 1

For the chat room, you'll need to create a page plugin. Check the docs on the main site, they are pretty thorough.

I looked at them and honestly I dont understand it. Where do I modifie the code? I added costume page via admin console. Where do I find it?

You can duplicate one of the current page plugins (in qa-plugins folder) and work from there.

However I do actually have a chat room plugin I made for my site. So I could clean up that and release it for Q2A if you like.

ok so I got to this point I cleaned up one of the plugins heres the code..

This shows the empty page with title Live Chat
