Protect a tour by user, password and timeperiod ?

Hi

How would you do a user based password protection for a tour ?
The goal is to set a tour free for a specific customer within a specific timeperiod.

Are there any Plugins to solve that ?

Kind regards

search in Google with keywords - "HTML page (or site) password protection" , "lock encrypt html page"

Is there some kind of automatisation ?

In Google I only find solutions with .htaccess to lock files/directories with user/password for a list of Users.

I'm searching for a easy to use solution where I can say User A has access to the Website for the next 24 hours. After this timeperiod he automaticly get's blocked.
How is that possible ?

Kind regards

Here is a GUI for .htaccess.

I was not percise enough of what I have in mind.

I wanna restrict some rooms of a tour.

Example:
When a user starts a tour of a real estate I want to prevent him entering the house. I wanna lock some rooms for the user. I guess this has to be solved in the *.js file(s) of the tour and cannot not be managed by the .htacess file because there is not a separate file for every node (room) and all Nodes of a tour are stored in a *.js file.

Does anybody know how to solve this task ?

Kund regards

Maybe create each ' node' on its own and link to each via GO TO URL rather than encasing the tour all-in-one? This would allow htaccess to function.

If there are likely to be a large proportion of areas that are 'locked off' then maybe produce a tour 'page' that the htaccess can work with.

Hope this makes sense?

Thanks for that idea.

Would this also work with Skins ?
Example: I have a Skin where I can popup a floorplan, when I go to the next room (linked by URL) then, I guess, the popuped floorplan would disapear, because the state of the Skin will be lost in the next room, right ?

Kind regards

Does anybody know how to create a nice, custom Loginwindow for the password protected area ?
I don't wanna use this ugly standard .htaccess loginwindow.

I've been searching on the web, but I can't find a step by step instruction for my stupid little brain

Kind regards

Which loginwindow are you talking about?
It may be wholly dependant on your OS if you are using htaccess.
have you got a URL we can take a look?

This one (it's Firefox, but it looks ugly on every Browser):

: login_small.jpg (100.01 KiB) Viewed 2738 times

Any idea ?

Edit:
It looks not ugly, but it doesn't fit into the Graphicdesign I have in mind

Kind regards
