Ok, I added this to the dashboard.php and I got the message "Welcome to the member's area", which tells me that I am able to login.

<?PHP
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['members']) || $_SESSION['members'] != "1") {

echo "Welcome to the member's area, " . $_SESSION['username'] . "!";
} else {
echo "Please log in first to see this page.";
}
?>

 

BUT, I just realized that I was had by a simple mistake.  With the code was working and logging me in, but I had the header location going right back to the index.php file. VERY BAD rookie mistake that I totally missed.

 

<?PHP
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['members']) || $_SESSION['members'] != "1") {
    header ("Location: index.php");
}
?>
