lpxxfaintxx Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I am using PHP-Fusion. I want to make it so that EVERY registered user has its OWN uploader and its OWN photo gallery. How should I set up the database so that each individual user has its own column? Should I create a new table, or should I insert a new field? How would the database work? Will it create a new field for every new uploaded file? AH! I'm getting so frustrated. Please Help,lpxxfaintxxI really am desperate.

Barand Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Basically you need 2 tables, one for users and one for image filenames[code]user gallery========= =======userID --+ galleryIDusername +-- userIDpwd imagefile[/code]When a user uploads an image file, add a new reocord to the gallery table with the user's id and the filename. Store the uploaded file in, say, "/images/username/filename.jpg".A search on userID in the gallery table will pull that user's filenames.

Barand Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 It's just to illustrate the foreign key/primary key joins in the database. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/4120-how-should-i-set-up-the-database/#findComment-14452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
