A user login, logout, register start for Codeigniter 3
Codeigniter has not evolved as fast as modern php and php best practices.
It has become a very old framework, and I advise against using it, even for beginners.
Try something like Laravel or Symfony.
With Laravel you get login-logout-register out of the box, and it is a very easy to use and pleasant framework: go for it.
- Open /application/config/database.php and edit with your database settings
- On your database, open a SQL terminal paste this and execute:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `users` (
`id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`username` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`email` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`password` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`avatar` varchar(255) DEFAULT 'default.jpg',
`created_at` datetime NOT NULL,
`updated_at` datetime DEFAULT NULL,
`is_admin` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`is_confirmed` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`is_deleted` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `ci_sessions` (
`id` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
`ip_address` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`timestamp` int(10) unsigned DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL,
`data` blob NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id),
KEY `ci_sessions_timestamp` (`timestamp`)
);Go to http://example.com/register and create a user
It is just a starter for user login logout register functionalities.
Extend the user controller or keep it as it is and write your own application with Codeigniter.
