Hi Can anyone help please.

I have a web site that users fill in data about rides and post the to a mysql db

I am using $_SESSION to store the user that is logged in. 

what I want to do is any records posted need to posted with the username stored and also when I retrieve the record I only want to SELECT the records that the lodge in user has posted.

 

below is the php page I am using to add records ...

Really appreciate any help as I am stuck on how to go about doing this ...

 

<?php
       
            
       
       
       
       // database connect
        include('../db_connect.php');

        session_start();



        // blank fields
        $var_course_name = $var_r_time = $var_r_date = $var_bike = $var_comments ='';
        $errors = array('course' => '', 'r_time' =>'', 'r_date' =>'', 'bike' =>'', 'comments' =>'');
    
        //--------  Check Data -----------
        //Check if Data is sent & validate
        if(isset($_POST['name_submit'])){
            if(empty($_POST['name_submit'])){
                Echo 'No Course passed';
            } else {
            $var_course_id = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['course_id']);
            $var_r_time = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['r_time']);
            $var_r_date = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['r_date']);
            $var_bike = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['bike']);
            $var_comments = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_POST['comments']);

            //Create sql
            $sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_rides(course_id, r_time, r_date) VALUES ('$var_course_id', '$var_r_time', '$var_r_date')";
            
            //Save to DB and check
            if(mysqli_query($conn, $sql)){

            } else {
                echo 'query error: ' . mysqli_error($conn);
            }
            }

            }

         //end of checking

?>

data related to the user should use the user's id (auto-increment integer primary index from the 'user' table') to relate it back to the user it belongs to. this will result in the least amount of data storage, result in the fastest queries, and allow the user's information (name, username, ...) to be edited without breaking the relationship in the data. you would also store the user's id in the session variable, not the user's name/username, when the user logs in, as this will also support editing the user's information, in addition to supporting the current operation you are asking about. to get any of the other user's information, you would query for it on any page that needs it.

tbl_rides needs a user_id column that you would store the $_SESSION['user_id'] value in.

also, for the operation you are asking about, if the current visitor is not logged in, you would not display the form, nor run any of the form processing code.
