CodeIgniter basic controller extends

Question

I want to extend basic controller by my own. This is code of file MY_Secure.php which i put in application/libraries

<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

Class MY_Secure extends CI_Controller {
  public function __construct() {
    parent::__construct();
    if(!$this->session->userdata('status') == 'admin') {
        $data['message'] = '<p class="error">You shold login in admin area</p>';
        $this->load->view('admin/login', $data);
    }
  }
}
?>

And here is my controller in application/controllers/category.php

<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Category extends MY_Secure {

function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
}

 public function index()
{
 $data['login'] = $this->session->userdata('login');
 $data['status'] = $this->session->userdata('status');

 $this->load->model('categories_model');
 $data['main_categories'] = $this->categories_model->get_main_categories();

 $this->load->view('admin/headers/main', $data);
 $this->load->view('admin/category');
 $this->load->view('admin/footer/main');
}
?>

But i have an error Fatal error: Class 'MY_Secure' not found in Z:\home\ci.local\www\application\controllers\admin\category.php on line 3 How can i avoid this error? What i do wrong?

No, you can have as many controllers as you want. But extending the core controller is not the same thing as making new controllers. stackoverflow.com/questions/5613767/… codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/controllers.html

There is no required condition to save or name it is as MY_Controller. You can name it eg: Mysite_Controller if you'd like.

Please put your class in the application/core folder and then extend this class from your controller class.

But in order for that to work properly, you need to change config file value:

$config['subclass_prefix'] = 'Mysite_'; // default  it is 'MY_'

And you can not name your extends controller 'MY_Secure', you must name it 'MY_Controller'. Then extend it

class Category extends MY_Controller

I think the problem is the location of MY_Secure.php. The MY_ prefix works if you have not changed it in the config.

MY_Secure class must be saved in Applications Core folder for it to work in CodeIgniter 2.O not in Libraries folder.
