referrer match and auto expiration

When INTERDUBS client pages need to be guarded against links from specific sites then this can be done via the setting of the configuration: referrer match will auto expire login.

In brief a link on facebook or twitter no longer would be able to expose your content.


Should a visitor click on a link to get to INTERDUBS and the link matches this configuration then the following will happen:

1) The visitor will see an error instead of the page
2) The login will set to expired - no further client access is possible
3) An email is being sent to the creator of the login / reel in question
4) The referring page causing the auto expiration will be noted in the internal login note.


A login expiration can be easily reset via the edit login page.

A reasonable default for this such a setting could be:

twitter facebook bit.ly fb.me goo.gl myspace tinyurl is.gd cli.gs tr.im kl.am ff.im twrl.nl t.co/

Different patterns can be separated by spaces. There is no limit to the number of patterns.
