Go to the PHP section of http://www.pixel2life.com and take your pick at one of the user systems there. There are a few good User System tutorials that explain everything needed. After you get all that done you can start piecing together different scripts to get what you want. Most of them are explained quite well and that should help. If you need anymore help beyond that point just ask one of us here.

ok thanks ill take a look at that...what im trying to do is profile's, Private messaging and all that fun stuff for my personal site...

ill make it for you, can you be a little more specific as to what you want it to do though?

like whats a profile? exactly?

[oab]

ohhh i see, i can do it i probably wont be done tonight though but i can try, i have nothing else to do anyway..

[oab]

Or maybe you could just install a forum or portal script and only use the profile/pm part of it..

might be easier and more secure that what i will make. But im going to make it anyway since im going to make a site with php scripts anyway.

There is an edit button for a reason. Please use it next time

well i might be able to code it myself...i just kinda wanted help figuring out how to do it(learning still)...once i get the basics of it i will be able to code it myself i just need to figure out how to add an Admin section that can edit all profiles... and one for users to use to edit them himself


Edit: i was wondering if its possible with PHP
when i include 'cons.php'
and i set it in a folder from index.php
do i put '/new/cons.php'
is it possible to do i mean couse i tried that earlier and it didnt work?

[oab]

should work, try taking off the first slash maybe?

And what fields do you want there to be in the profiles?

like, name address ect.??

[dpogary]

ok this is what im thinking of for a start
i might change it later but probly just the basics for now

Name
email
age
Instant Messenger(icq,msn,aim,yahoo)
website
image url(Display pic)
(then there is another thing that i would need to add myself since its linking information from my game into the profile(like score's and user name and stuff)
Adittional info
residence
sex
Hobbies and Interests
Type of Person I Am


but it will be in probly a different order...im coding mine right now and i havnt gotten that far yet...im working on a log in script right now


Edit: on one of my pages im getting
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' on line 5

how do i tell what spot on my file is line 5?
