  1. // Start the Session require('connect.php'); ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', 7200); session_set_cookie_params(7200); session_start(); Above is my code. How can I prolong the session so that it does not expire after a time limit? As of right now it expires after 2 hours.
  2. And here i was thinking this was somewhere I could reach out to get help. I didn't write this, I just tried to make use of it. If you think it's not good enough to use, then do you have somewhere you can direct me to find something better, or learn how to code something similar myself.
  3. I found a simple PHP login script online & i amended it slightly. I'll admit i'm no expert, but there are 2 main problems here. 1. Users get logged out after about 1 hour, which gets very annoying several times per day. 2. When a user logs out, it doesn't delete the session correctly because if a different user logs in right away, it remembers the old session variables. <?php // logout? $logout = $_GET["logout"]; if($logout == "1") { // Initialize the session. // If you are using session_name("something"), don't forget it now! session_start(); session_destroy(); // Unset all of the session variables. $_SESSION = array(); // If it's desired to kill the session, also delete the session cookie. // Note: This will destroy the session, and not just the session data! if (ini_get("session.use_cookies")) { $params = session_get_cookie_params(); setcookie(session_name(), '', time() - 3600, $params["path"], $params["domain"], $params["secure"], $params["httponly"] ); } $_SESSION['id'] = ""; $_SESSION['username'] = ""; $_SESSION['password'] = ""; $_SESSION['first'] = ""; $_SESSION['last'] = ""; $_SESSION['email'] = ""; $_SESSION['email2'] = ""; $_SESSION['type'] = ""; $_SESSION['links'] = ""; $_SESSION['links2'] = ""; $_SESSION['abbreviation'] = ""; // Finally, destroy the session. session_start(); session_destroy(); } //Start the Session require('connect.php'); session_start(); //3. If the form is submitted or not. //3.1 If the form is submitted if (isset($_POST['username']) and isset($_POST['password'])){ //3.1.1 Assigning posted values to variables. $username = $_POST['username']; $password = $_POST['password']; //3.1.2 Checking the values are existing in the database or not $query = "SELECT * FROM `user` WHERE username='$username' and password='$password'"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); $count = mysql_num_rows($result); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $id = $row['id']; $first = $row['first']; $last = $row['last']; $email = $row['email']; $email2 = $row['email2']; $type = $row['type']; $links = $row['links']; $links2 = $row['links2']; $abbreviation = $row['abbreviation']; $abbreviation2 = $row['abbreviation2']; } date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles'); $timestamp = date('m/d/Y h:i:s', time()); $ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]; $query2 = "UPDATE user SET lastlogin='$timestamp', ip='$ip' WHERE username='$username' and password='$password'"; $result2 = mysql_query($query2) or die(mysql_error()); //3.1.2 If the posted values are equal to the database values, then session will be created for the user. if ($count == 1){ $_SESSION['id'] = "$id"; $_SESSION['username'] = $username; $_SESSION['password'] = $password; $_SESSION['first'] = $first; $_SESSION['last'] = $last; $_SESSION['email'] = $email; $_SESSION['email2'] = $email2; $_SESSION['type'] = $type; $_SESSION['links'] = $links; $_SESSION['links2'] = $links2; $_SESSION['abbreviation'] = $abbreviation; $_SESSION['abbreviation2'] = $abbreviation2; }else{ //3.1.3 If the login credentials doesn't match, he will be shown with an error message. $error = "<br/><center><font color='red'>Your username or password is incorrect. </font></center>"; } } //3.1.4 if the user is logged in Greets the user with message if (isset($_SESSION['username'])){ header('Location: http://www.thrulinela.com/intranet/index.php'); }else{ //3.2 Display login form. ?>
