Exclude One Link for Select Few IP Addresses

Question

Hello, I just created a new Muse internal website for my organization. I have been asked to exclude one certain link off my homepage for a select few IP addresses (Servers). Support tells me that this is possible, but they are not allowed to help, and I was told I need to post to this. So yeah that is what I am needing to do. Help would be much appreciated!
Thanks In Advance

Hi Matt,
You first need to find the IP of the client for which you need to implement some server side coding for example php and then hide the link if the client's IP matches the one in the list. This is just an example code below.
<script>
     <?php
          //Include all the IPs that you need to hide the link for here
          $ip_list = array('1.1.1.1','2.2.2.2','3.3.3.3');
          $hide_link = false;
          if(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {
               if(in_array((string)$_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'],$ip_list)) {
                    $hide_link = true;
          } else if(isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'])) {
                         if(in_array((string)$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],$ip_list)) {
                              $hide_link = true;
          if($hide_link) {
               echo "var hide_link = true";
     ?>
     if (typeof hide_link != 'undefined') {
          document.getElementById("id" /*Type the id assigned to the link here inside quotes*/).style.display = 'none';
</script>
