In this advanced tutorial i will teach you the steps required to create a custom build login/member system with PHP.

The system itself ofcourse has alot of room for improvements, also, it’s very easily expandable, i’ve chosen to work in a modular way, so that if you change something you only have to change it in 1 file. I’ve done this by using functions, this script is a good example of the real power of PHP.

Features:

  • Registration
  • Lost password
  • Various checks on passwords and usernames
  • users can change their password
  • Passwords are stored in a database with a seed added to it and they have sha1 encryption
  • Easy to adjust & use

Requirements:

  • Mysql database
  • a php & mysql enabled host
  • php mail() enabled host
  • ftp access to your website

  1. Creating the mysql table

  3. Creating the header.php file
  4. Creating the footer.php file
