resusable function in codeigniter

Question

Almost in all function in most of my controller i have to see to same things. i.e

1.Check if logged in. 2.Check the privilege.

I know how to do it. But what is the best way, so that i don't have to re-write the same code everywhere? Is it to make a helper or something? I'm a bit new to codeigniter, all i know is basic php!

You might want to actually create a helper class for user handling to avoid repetitive code if you want.

If all the methods in your controller need the same code, you can put that authentification code in the constructor.

Otherwise, creating a helper is probably the best way, but you'll still have to repeat the function in each method subject to authentification.
