add this line on the page where you write the news:
then add this line at the top of the php page that adds the news:
That should work. It would be helpful if you posted the actual code tho
password: <input type="password" name="pass"><br>
then add this line at the top of the php page that adds the news:
if($_POST['pass'] != "Your password here"){
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3; URL=../index.php">';
die("Password is invalid. Redirecting back to index.php");
}
That should work. It would be helpful if you posted the actual code tho

It would actually be easier to use http authentification. That way you don't have to login constantly. Just do a tutorial search for it, and you should find loads of tutorials on how to do it.
You can also check php.net for the header function (it has a few bits about authentification i believe).
