Cloaker that prevents duplicate users from accessing page?

[pr0j3ctx]

I'm looking for a free cloaker or html code which will redirect people to another site of my liking if they've already visited the site once.
They enter the website once, then they do something and get redirected.
Next time they click on the original link, the code/cloaker automatically redirects them somewhere else.

I know this exists, just don't know how to look it up. Preferably free please.

Would like some help. Thanks.

This is not how things work here.

Try this PHP code:

<?php
if (!isset($_COOKIE['firsttime']))
{
    setcookie("firsttime", "no", /* EXPIRE */);
    header('Location: http://www.yoursite.com/safe-page.php');
    exit();
}
else
{
    header('Location: http://www.yoursite.com/money-page.php');
    exit();
}
?>

Thank you. Could you elaborate what this code does?
How does it see whether it's the visitor's first time visiting the page?

That's all I need to know, the rest of the code I understand.

It creates a simple cookie and then checks to see if that cookie exists or not.

It's not working properly for me. Maybe a code which check for the cookie and if it's not their then create one
Of course with the redirects in there so it redirects if it's already created before.

I put it in my html code but it doesn't do anything. Also tried into a seperate php file, getting errors on line 4.
Appreciate the help so far.

Could you post the error code (you can omit the domain link)?

Ah, you need to put an expiry for the cookie:

    setcookie("firsttime", "no", 2147483647);

This is the maximum time you can set for the cookie expiry.

If you want a shorter time, then this site guides you how to calculate it - https://www.w3schools.com/php/func_http_setcookie.asp

This is what I've got now

<?php
if (!isset($_COOKIE['firsttime']))
{
setcookie("firsttime", "no", 2147483647);
header('Location: http://safepage.com');
exit();
}
else
{
header('Location: http://www.moneypage.com/');
exit();
}
?>

Whenever I refresh, it won't redirect me to the safepage. I'm not sure why.

That's because the cookie has already been created.

Change firsttime to secondtime and reupload (or delete the firsttime cookie).

Or try a different browser.

May be check JCI and ask them if they can help with such thing ?

And pay $400+ a month?

What @pr0j3ctx is looking to do can be done in 10 lines of basic PHP script. I don't see why he needs JCI and what value it adds to him.

Works now, I really appreciate your help. Glad this community is helpful.
