    Is it the whole WordPress installation or just specific posts you wish to protect?

    The reason I’m asking is that you can lock down the whole installation using a plugin for authenticated users or just password protect the posts.

    That may be easier than using $_SESSION and likely safer too.

    Hi, thanks.
    no, it’s just some pages of the website that I wrote (to manage the db)
    Once the admin will be logged in, there will be a link in the footer to the home page of the db section..I’d like to start a session with the same data the admin used to log into wp (otherwise I have to do another login page for the db section)..Hope I was clear
