Hiding contents - Part 2

Scenario

You want to display a post or page only to users who scanned a QR code image.

Solution

Click on the QR-Codes menu item in the plugin

Click the button to create a new QR-Code

Fill in the required fields:

Description: enter a descriptive or mnemonic name for the QR-Code
Key: enter a sequence of characters
Redirect URL: select the target post or page

Save the QR-Code in the database.

Click on the Enhanced QR code tab

Click the button to create the enhanced version of the QR code image

If you want to redirect the users who attempt to access the post or page without scanning the QR code image, set the URL for the unauthorized access:

Save the URL

In Dynamic QR Code metabox of the post or page editor (Classic or Block), select the QR-Code that must be scanned to access the content.

If the post/page contains a form, select the checkbox.

If you selected “request method and custom field in form” in the Form check mode under the plugin’s Settings page, you also need to add an hidden HTML input field to the form:

<input type="hidden" name="dynqrcode_auth" value="33">

You can find the copy-and-paste HTML code on the QR-Code Edit page.

This way...

users who scanned the QR code enhanced image will see the post.

To improve the security, enable the QR code scanning only to MyFast APP applications.

How to use the standard image

If you prefer to use the standard version of the QR code image instead of the enhanced one, check the Enable content hiding with standard QR code image option on the plugin's Settings page.

Warning

The content hiding procedure is not hacker proof.

Do not hide sensitive or crucial information.
