Login Script for a forum

Recommended Posts

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

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)

Use sesssions instead, they're better. =P

i have read a lot of "session" today... eheh :D

 

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.

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?
