This is a very simple example of a password protected page.
Copy & paste this code into a new PHP document.
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Password Protected Content</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<!--minimal demo styles-->
<style>
html {font-size:16px}
body {font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", "DejaVu Sans", Verdana, "sans-serif";
font-size: 1.5rem;
width:80%;
margin:0 auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php
// Define your username and password here
$username = "admin";
$password = "pass123";
if (isset($_POST['txtUsername']) != $username || $_POST['txtPassword'] != $password) {
?>
<!--LOG-IN FORM-->
<form name="form" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
<fieldset>
<legend>Log-In</legend>
<p><label for="txtUsername">Username:</label>
<br>
<input type="text" title="Enter your Username" name="txtUsername" id="txtUsername" required placeholder="5 characters"></p>
<p><label for="txtPassword">Password:</label>
<br>
<input type="password" title="Enter your password" name="txtPassword" id="txtPassword" required placeholder="7 characters"></p>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-lg btn-primary">Submit</button>
</fieldset>
</form>
<?php
}
else {
?>
<!--PROTECTED CONTENT-->
<h2>Log-In Success!</h2>
<p>You have reached a password protected area of this page. What would you like to do next?</p>
<!--Links to other pages-->
<ul>

<li><a href="#">Upload Files</a></li>

</ul>
<?php

<!--END PROTECTED CONTENT-->
