right way of checking if query = 1?

[NuMan]

So i have a query which is fully working but my session won't work. i am currently using this:

 

$_SESSION['admin'] = $user_data['admin'] == 1;

 

user_data is the name of my working query. this won't work though it won't set the session admin. Any help?

That makes no sense.  What exactly are you trying to do?

 

Do you want $_SESSION['admin'] = $user_data['admin']?

Are you trying to use the ternary operator?

 

$value = (condition) ? value if true : value if false;

$_SESSION['admin'] = ($user_data['admin'] == 1) ? true : false;
//$_SESSION['admin'] will be TRUE if  $user_data['admin'] == 1, false otherwise

$_SESSION['admin'] = ($user_data['admin'] == 1) ? true : false;
//$_SESSION['admin'] will be TRUE if  $user_data['admin'] == 1, false otherwise

 

im just trying to create the session admin if $user_data['admin'] = 1. I will try what you posted and edit this post with the result. Thanks in advanced!

 

EDIT:

I did this:

<?php
if(isset($_SESSION['admin'])){ echo "hey"; }else{ echo "";}
?> 

 

And it just says hey to everyone even if their admin is set to 0.

<?php
if ($user_data['admin'] == 1) {
    $_SESSION['admin'] = '';  //Place something between the 2 '
}
?>

$_SESSION['admin'] = ($user_data['admin'] == 1) ? TRUE : FALSE;
if($_SESSION['admin'] === TRUE){
  echo 'Hey';
}else{
  echo 'Nay';
}
