Okay tell the redirect to go to: /?logout

This is a GET query. So where you want the message to appear put the following code:

PHP: Select all


if (isset($_GET['logout'])) {
echo "You have logged out";
}

This basically says "If logout came in the URL succeeding a question mark then say this".

PHP: Select all


<?
session_start();
session_destroy();
header ("Location: http://www.qwhosting.co.uk/?logout");
?>

You should never link to the name of the index page (index.html or index.php) you should only link to the root (just a /)/

And this part:

PHP: Select all


Welcome <? echo $_SESSION['username']; ?>
If (isset($_GET['logout'])) {echo "You have logged out";}

Change to :

PHP: Select all


<?php if (isset($_SESSION['username'])) {
echo "welcome ".$_SESSION['username'];
}
if (iiset($_GET['logout'])) {
echo "you have logged out";
}
?>

Aaron1988 · #5 (**permalink**) Nov 18th, 2007, 22:02

cheers mate

it worked also you put "iiset" lol so had to change it to "isset"

but anyway thanks for your help it works also how can i have it so it says you have "logged out successfully" then it shows there $username?

Thanks
Aaron

alexgeek · #6 (**permalink**) Nov 18th, 2007, 22:42

Well you destroyed the session in the log out script that held the username so you'd have to go to a lot of bother for that.
It's not really worth it.

Aaron1988 · #7 (**permalink**) Nov 18th, 2007, 22:52

ok mate,

so just keep it as it is then

all i got to do now lol is put the protected page lol on all the pages i want protected.

Cheers
Aaron

alexgeek · #8 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 06:43

Do you know how to do that?
would be something like this at the top of every page you want protected:

PHP: Select all


 <?php 
// NOTHING ABOVE HERE (not even opening <html> tag or Doctype
if (!isset($_SESSION['username'])) {
header("Location: / "); // if they are not logged in, go to the index page)
}
// By here put the actual page

Aaron1988 · #9 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 10:44

Hey mate thanks for that i did already know how to do that lol, cause had one already that used the checklogin function lol,

Only thing i wanted with the restrict access, was when it restircts say a "You have entered a restricted error <a href="/login/register.php"

Thanks
Aaron

alexgeek · #10 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 15:10

Ahh right:

PHP: Select all


if (!isset($_SESSION['username'])) {
echo "You are not logged in";
exit(); // stops anymore code running so will be end of the page for not logged in user
}
//page here

Aaron1988 · #11 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 15:56

mate i know you put this as solved but it not lmao cause when i use the 2nd code you give me i get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: eit() in /home/greatmaste/domains/qwhosting.co.uk/public_html/aboutshop.php on line 5

alexgeek · #12 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 15:58

Sorry typo. it's exit()

Aaron1988 · #13 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 16:01

ok mate lol, also i dont want the message ti display on a white page lol i want it to be displayed on the index.php page cause then itbe eaiser and will look more professional

Thanks
Aaron

alexgeek · #14 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 16:07

Oh okay.
Do the same as the first example but change it to redirect to /?login
then put this wherever you want the text to appear:

PHP: Select all


<?php 
if (iiset($_GET['login'])) {
echo "you are not logged in";
}
?>

Aaron1988 · #15 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 16:21

hi i have put this on my page i want protected

Code: Select all

<?php // NOTHING ABOVE HERE (not even opening <html> tag or Doctype
if (!isset($_SESSION['username'])) 
{
header("Location: / "); // if they are not logged in, go to the index page)
}
// By here put the actual page
?>

and this code on the index.php page where i want it to show

Code: Select all

<?php 
if (isset($_SESSION['username'])) 
{
echo "welcome ".$_SESSION['username']; 
}
if (isset($_GET['logout'])) 
{
echo "You have Logged Out";
}
if (isset($_GET['login'])) 
{
echo "you are not logged in";
}
?>

hope this is enough information to help me mate

alexgeek · #16 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 16:24

Aaron1988 · #17 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 16:27

Thanks
Aaron

alexgeek · #18 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 16:34

Just glanced over your code. you didn't send the ?login like i said:

PHP: Select all


<?php // NOTHING ABOVE HERE (not even opening <html> tag or Doctype
if (!isset($_SESSION['username'])) 
{
header("Location: /login "); // if they are not logged in, go to the index page)
}
// By here put the actual page
?>

Aaron1988 · #19 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 17:18

cheers mate you forgot to put the ? next to /login lol so i corrected it and now it works like a charm.

Cheers for your help mate most appreciated.

P.S if i need anymore help with my site i will post another thread lol

Thanks
Aaron

Aaron1988 · #20 (**permalink**) Nov 19th, 2007, 17:23

also it says welcome admin and right next to it it says you are logged it so how can i make it go on to a new line

please

and also when i login and click the protected page lol it still says
"Welcome Admin then the mesage i set which is "you need to login to view content"

i have fixed the bit which says welcome admin when i click the protected page it was cause i started the session lol but didnt destroy it but now when i login and click the protected page it still says "you need to login to view content"

Cheers
Aaron
