php user control panel
6 Answers
imagine i have a website. imagine that i wanted to have a login script, possibly php, which directs a user to his/her personal webpage. kind of like a control panel but its contents are unimportant. what is important is that R2DJew goes to his personal page with his forum replies etc and Jewbacca goes to her own where her PM's are displayed. in brief, i dont want a members only area. i want lots of single user only areas. like when you log into myspace, you're presented with your page.
if you think i have gone overboard with the description it is because i have. i have tried googling for something like this but cant find anything. probably using crappy search terms.
P.S. a free script would be preferable please : )
thanks

What about having your list of users in a database and using SQL to display only material intended for them?
You could have lots of php variables including SQLvariable (the SQL string) and usrName (the persons username as stored in the database)
The SQL could be :
SQLvariable = "select * from yourTable where username =" & usrName
that way, they only see their own content.
Clearly, though, you still haev the database to design and the php pages to write! :o

As stevie21 suggests, short of writing it yourself there's not much can be done. It sounds like a very specific piece of software you need and to bolt it onto existing forum software would need some bespoke code written.
http://www.rentacoder.com/ is a good little site which may provide you with a developer for such a project at a reasonable price.
You need to be sure in your mind EXACTLY what you want beforehand. These developers don't like people changing their mind half way through! I know, I'm one of them ;o)
