macoughl Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Hey everyone,I'm creating a web site where I want users to be able to set up their own personal profiles similar to what you might find on like a dating site. Are there programs or scripts or even books I could get to help me accomplish this? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitalgod Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I'm guessing you're looking for a membership system.There's a good tutorial right here that can help you startedhttp://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/40/0.phpgiving your users the option of creating their own portfolio is pretty simple once you know how to make a membership system.

macoughl Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 Thanks that is really helpful. I'm pretty new to this stuff do you think creating something like that is over my head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalgod Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 depends how much time you're willing to put into it.If you don't want to spend too much time on it you could always look for a free script and if it doesn't do everything you need, just look at how it was made and add your own custom features to it.All you need right now is a membership system that allows users to edit their profile. There are tons of those out there that might suit your needs.If you don't find anything you can always make your own by following that tutorial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macoughl Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 When you say there are a ton of good membership systems out there, any advice on where I would find a good one? Also where would I find a free script that I can edit? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonLewis Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 yeh, search hotscripts for a script called PUMA member system, its a good one, uses flat file. but if you create your own one you have more flexability. learnt he basics first tho. good luck.
