  you can try this :
  
  

  
  
   if (!isset($_COOKIE['enter']))
  
         {
  
             if(isset($_POST['enter']))
  
                 {
  
                     setcookie("enter", $_POST['enter']);
  
                 }
  
             else
  
                 {
  
                     header('Location: ' . home_url() . '/intro/');
  
                 }
  
         }
  
  

  
  
  then, make new page "intro"

    Hi,
    
    Here is the instructions to set a vimeo video as a splash screen
    
    Step 1 : Install the "WP Video Lightbox" plugin located in the following url and Activate the plugin
    
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-video-lightbox/
    
    Step 2 : Add the following code to the footer.php file in your theme before calling <?php wp_footer(); ?>
    
    

    <a href="http://vimeo.com/33508155?width=960&amp;height=446 
    
    " rel="wp-video-lightbox" class="lightvideo" title="" style="display: none;"></a> 

    
    
    You can see clearly from the code the url, width, height parameters are set... you can change them to whatever you wish...
    
    Step 3: The plugin by default has disabled autoplay videos -> So we need to enable it...
    
    Go to Plugins -> Editor -> Select plugin to edit: -> Select "WP Video Lightbox"
    
    You will be able to see the file wp-video-lightbox.php
    
    Search for the following line
    
    

    $vid_lightbox_autoplay	      = 'false';

    
    
    Replace 'false' with 'true' in the above line
    
    Step 4: Add the following script after wp_head(); ?>
    
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://raw.github.com/carhartl/jquery-cookie/master/jquery.cookie.js"></script>
    
    You can download the js from the url and upload it to your theme folder and link it accordingly...
    
    Step 5: Add the following script after <?php wp_footer(); ?> function
    
    

    <script type="text/javascript">
    
    jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    
    if ($.cookie('cookie_name') != '1') {
    
    $("a.lightvideo").trigger('click');
    
    $.cookie('cookie_name', '1', { expires: 3 }); }
    
    });
    
    </script>

    
    
    Thats all done... If a user visits your webpage first time, It loads the video and set a cookie which expires in 3 days... You can change the value to whatever you want...
    
    In a similar fashion you can add a youtube video, swf , image...Read the instructions in the following pdf...
    
    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wp-content/uploads/docs/WP-Video-Lightbox-Plugin-Usage-Guide.pdf
    
    If you need my help in installing and making it active, do send me a personal message and i can do it for you....

  Hi moclov555,
  
  I did this before using this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simplesplash/
  
  It is very straightforward and effective.
  
  If you want me to help you, please send me a PM with login details.
  
  Regards,

  1. create your own splash screen page (with embedded video), save to "home.html"
  2. upload "home.html" to your wordpress root directory via ftp or file manager
  3. edit .htacces file and add this code :
  
  

  DirectoryIndex home.html index.php

  
  
  and your .htaccess file should be like this :
  
  

  DirectoryIndex home.html index.php
  
  <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  
  RewriteEngine On
  
  RewriteBase /
  
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  
  RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
  
  </IfModule>

  
  
  4. now open your website. :D
