Barring IP Address

[Owen Drumm]

I need one section in my catalog to bar all Spanish IP addresses. Anyone got any idea if this can be done and how in Developer?

I would simply put a message saying 'These products are not available to Spanish customers' rather than messing around with IP addresses.

You would need to talk to your web host, but I don't think there is any way to stop particular nations from viewing a site.

You can do it, but you'd need to get a list of IP addresses used by spanish ISPs (these are available but you have to pay) and then create an htaccess file to bar these IPs.

the htaccess details can be found here.

.htaccess wont work as I only want to bar from one page in the whole website. The reason I want the page barred from Spain is because of legal reasons.

You prevent them seeing a single page using htaccess by doing a ReWriteCond and directing them to another page.

See here as a starting point.
