Hey everyone,
Background:
There has been dozens if not hundreds of posts about how to create a register and login page for your website. You had two options, one was to go into cPanel, create a password protected directory, and manually add each and every use for it. Or you could install a login script, which required making all of your pages have a .php extension, change all of your links, and then add some code to each page.
Now there is a third choice. I have created a login script which uses a password protected directory. Once you install the script, your users just have to go the register form, once they register (depending on some setting your choose), then can then login to the password protected directory just as if you have created their account for them in cPanel.
Script Information:
Here are the features of the script:
- Easy installation process (I provided written instructions, as well as a step by step video tutorial with audio)
- Highly customizable, any file that you users or yourself use with the script can be changed, as well as options like:
- Email authentication
- Admin authentication
- Admin notification when a user registers
- Requiring a valid email address
- If multiple users can have the same email address
- Minimum characters of the username and password
- Forgot password form so users can have their password reset to their choosing if they forget it or just want it changed
- Resend activation email, if you have email authentication enabled and the user did not receive the email or accidentally deleted it.
- Ability to use the FTP function in PHP instead of CHMOD to set file permissions (You don't need to worry about this really, I just wanted people to be aware its there)
- Admin panel to administrate all of your users. The admin panel features:
- Listing of all of your users divided into pages
- Sorting of users by username, email address, and activation status.
- Editing of the users username, password, and email address
- Deleting users whom you no longer wish to have access
- Searching for users based on either username or email address
- If admin authentication is activated, you can activate the users via the admin panel
Not only that but I have created two video tutorial with audio of me explaining as we go along (sorry ahead of time, but as the video goes on the audio gets a little out of sync with the video, I can't prevent it).
So how do I get the script?
Unfortunately, I will be selling it (sorry, I'm a university student, money is one thing that is always in short supply).
I will be selling the script for $40 USD via Paypal (or check/money order if you do not have paypal).
To get the script send me an email to
watdaflip******.com, with the subject "Login script", "Want to purchase login script".. something along those lines, and I will give you further information.
For $40 what all do I get?
You get a copy of the script, and full email support directly from me, I'll do my best to guide you through installing and using, and should be able to answer any questions you have. The video tutorials mentioned above are available free with no additional charge, I recommend you watch them if you can't figure it out at first, it should help. I will also answer any questions or problems you have here on the forums if you make a post.
Is there anywhere I can see a live demo of the script?
Yes, please visit,
http://www.watdaflip.net/login How many of my websites can I use this on?
You can use it on any and all of the websites that you personal own (If you're making a website for your in-laws or family that's fine too). If you run a business creating websites for others I do request you purchase a separate copy for them.
How does the script work?
Basically when the user registers, they are added to a database like a normal login script. Depending on how you have the script configured there might be some additional steps before their account is activate and they can log in. Once their account is activated, the .htpasswd file is opened by the script, and the users details are written, it is then closed and the permissions are changes on the file to make it secure. They can then login like you normal would with a password protected directory.
I am having trouble installing the script can you do it for me?
I can, I just charge a minimal fee of $10 to cover the time it take for me to install the script. Just send me an email and we will go from there.
Is there a paid membership feature?
No, I no longer create any script that processes any payment whatsoever, sorry. If someone creates a modification for this script that accepts payment to register and want to release it for others to use I will be more then happy to include it with the script files, but I don't be making one myself to do this.
That's about it, if you have any questions, comments, concerns, etc feel free to post a reply to this thread, or email me.
Have a good day, and a Merry Christmas.
