URL Token Type

The URL type is used to submit the specified secret token within the URL query string.

In order to configure the URL token correctly, it is needed to setup the following fields:

• Type - pick the "URL" option from the dropdown.
• Key - enter a secret key that you have to specify in the query string. You HAVE to remember this value.
• Value - enter a secret value that you have to specify next to the secret key (you can leave this field empty). If set, you HAVE to remember this value.

In case you have specified only the secret key (e.g. by using the "apple" keyword), it is possible to access the admin panel only by visiting this URL:

administrator/index.php?apple

Otherwise, if you have specified both the secret key and value (e.g. by using the "apple" and "yellow" keywords), it is needed to launch this URL:

administrator/index.php?apple=yellow

Optionally, it is possible to change the way the system handles the login failures.

• Forbidden Error - after submitting a wrong token, it will be raised a blank page containing an error message.
• Site Redirect - after submitting a wrong token, you will be redirected to the front-end home page.

Only for the Forbidden Error handler, it is possible to change the error message that the users see after a login failure.
