locking xanga, sign in Options

[steezahh]

I cant figure out how to change the xanga settings so that you have to log in to view my page, because latley i have been getting soooo much traffic and someone already tried to be me! like they tried to pretend to be like me, so it would help if i had this feature.
please&thank you.

example.
here

to view it sign out if you are logged on!!

Stupid new scropts section.

Description: This script blocks unwanted visitors and unregistered guests from viewing your xanga. A pop-up will come up telling them that they've been blocked, and then it will redirect the visitor to another page. (The pop-up is optional, see "customizing the script" if you want it removed. Right now, it is set to redirect to the sign-in page. Depending on what codes you have on your xanga, the blocked user may or may not see your page, before getting redirected. What I do (even though I think it's an annoying script to have) is put a splash screen script on the page, so all they see when it's finished loading, is the splash image or text.

This part goes in header:

CODE

<!-- Part I of Block Users Script submitted by xanga.com/sherrys_designs -->
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function redirect () {
location.href = 'http://www.xanga.com/signin.aspx';
}
</SCRIPT>

This part goes in Webstats:

CODE

<!-- Part II of Block Users Script submitted by xanga.com/sherrys_designs -->
<script language="javascript">
function getXName() {
for (var i = 0; i < document.links.length; i++) {
if (document.links[i].href.substring(0,38)=="http://www.xanga.com/private/home.aspx") {
var link = document.links[i];
var text = document.all ? link.innerText : link.text ? link.text : '';
return text;
break;
}}
return null;
}

xName = getXName();

if (xName == 'USERNAME' || xName == 'USERNAME' || xName == null) {
alert("Sorry, you are either blocked from this site or not logged in.");
redirect();
}

</script>

Customizing the Script:
- Replace

USERNAME

with the username of who you want blocked.
- To add more users to the list, just follow the pattern and add

|| xName == 'USERNAME'

behind each

USERNAME'

- To change the message that appears on the pop up, replace

Sorry, you are either blocked from this site or not logged in.

with your own message.
- If you do not want the pop-up to appear, and have the blocked user be immediately redirected, remove this line from the script

alert("Sorry, you are either blocked from this site or not logged in.");

- To change where the blocked user gets redirected to, change

http://www.xanga.com/signin.aspx

to your desired target. This can be found in "Part I" or the "Header" part of the script.
