silverglade Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hi, I have stored user data in the database, but I think I need to somehow grab the "id" of the username, and use that in a SESSION when they log in, so that I can pull up the user information in the database for that particular user when they log in. and do that for everyone when they log in. My idea is user logs in Something like "grab the user "id" linked to this user, and add that value to "$currentUser", then somehow when it is time to show their user profile page, I do something like "display all field data where username=$currentUser. I don't know I am confused, any help plus code would be great if anyone can help, or just the pseudocode would be good. I hope I explained it right. thanks.

trq Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 The concept is quite simple. When a user logs in, store an there id in the $_SESSION array. You then use this to identify your user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
