[**** Todos: *****]

​In start.php incorporate if > else logic to disallow cron when not logged in but continuation of functioning cron as normal when logged in. In this way eliminate the requirement of additional plugin [Elgg 1.8-1.12 & 2.X & 3.X: Crontrigger] for crons to run correctly.

DO NOT IGNORE: ATTENTION:  If using this plugin, please don't enable the walled-garden option on Elgg's advanced settings page.

2. Copy the loginrequired theme plugin folder into you mod folder.
3. Place the plugin at the very bottom of the plugin list.
4. Upload, Extract and Activate Plugin Crontrigger => [Elgg 1.8-1.12 & 2.X & 3.X: Crontrigger] to ensure cron jobs are running correctly.
5. Upload, Extract and Activate Plugin Captcha => [Elgg 1.8-1.12 & 2.X & 3.X: Captcha] and place this plugin above Login required theme plugin.

[OPTIONAL] If you want to change the layout of the login page look at the file loginrequired/views/default/page/layouts/loginrequired_index_example.php. This is an alternative for loginrequired_index.php. The example loginrequired_index_example.php includes a right column with a widget, some text in the widget and an image shown in the widget. You can modify loginrequired_index_example.php according to your needs and then replace loginrequired_index.php with your version.
