bravo14 Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Hi all I have a forum on my site however as the users do not have to log in, I am having a lot of messages on there that I do not want. I want to try and create a registration process and log in script for registered users if they want to add a post to the forum. Does anybody have any ideas or sources? Thanks again Mark Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/110139-login-script-for-a-forum/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
marklarah Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Is this forum your creation? If so, you should have no trouble making one...use cookies. Make it, and then we can help. If not, either contact the developer (it must come with a login surely), or just change to open source (eg, SMF - the software this forum is run on) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/110139-login-script-for-a-forum/#findComment-565292 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluejay002 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 i have read a lot of "session" today... eheh but yeah, DarkWater is right, session is better, though cookies are needed but only session ID's are the only ones that are stored. unlike using cookies, it could be easily seen since its on the client and all info you put their can be seen.

bravo14 Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 Thanks guys for your responses, it is a script I found from somewhere else, I am going to try and create a login using session, but this will be a first, so it will be interesting to see what I can come up with, does anyone have a starting point for me?

marklarah Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Yes, but first, cookies are far superior - they last more than a session... Anyway, google "php login script" or whatever - there are plenty free ones out there for you to copy/look at/use/whatever Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/110139-login-script-for-a-forum/#findComment-565716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
