dpcook Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 So I'm trying to write a members only section script for an organization I'm in, including a publicly viewable profile page and members only backend that includes the ability to edit their profile as well as view global members only announcements. I have no SQL databases. What I've done so far is created forms to write to a text file for any given member, and a template to read it. How do I allow a user to login - and then point to uploading their form's created text file for only them? Also, how could I have this individual member once logged in read a global secure announcement page? Thank you!

waynew Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 A lot of tough work for something that could be done so easily with a database. Have you thought about upgrading? I know the thought might be daunting but trust me when I say that you'll thank the Lord that you did.

dpcook Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 You know, I'd like to. And probably could have disposal of SQL if I was really nice to a friend, who has plenty on his host. The even more daunting thing is that I don't know anything about it! This little user system I want to make, I don't even know where to begin - saving data to tables and blah blah! Even more of a catch - if this is done with sql, could it interact with phpbb?
