Solid PHP User Management System

Important Note About Support

I am afraid that I no longer have the time to support this product in full. However I will still help to the best of my knowledge if you have issues installing or integrating this product, and post product updates/patches.

I will much rather be honest about this, as I only wish the best for everyone. If you purchased this product before the 23rd of May 2012, I will still provide you with full support if you need help with customisations (within a reasonable scale).

All the best, MrEliasen

Available Version: 1.2.3

See the change log below for more information.

Description

Solid PHP User Management System is a compact, secure, easy integrateable user management system, using MySQL.

This user system makes it possible to restrict pages and content to specific users, user groups or individual members. You can easily integrate this user system into your current website, or use the already “Pre-Made Website” which works almost out of the box – your just need to install it!

The Solid PHP User Management System, has been coded with “Object Oriented Programming” in mind, so when you want the user system to do something like checking if a user is logged in, you simply call whatever function you wish like this:

$usersystem->IsLoggedIn();

Where ”$usersystem” is the user system, and ”->IsLoggedIn()” is the function inside the user system you wish to call/execute. In this case, checking if the user is logged in or not.
This also makes it very easy to integrate into your own website. It couldn’t be easier!

Live Demo

A demo version is available here.
All accounts are registered as administrators, and your e-mail will not be stored. Please note that the system will not send out any e-mails in this demo.

Documentation

There is always a copy of the documentation included with the download, but you can also find the latest release of the documentation online.

Server Requirements

PHP 5 .3+
MySQL 5.x. (1 database is required).
Have fopen, fwrite etc. enabled.
Have permissions to add/edit/delete file and folders.

• Each website global hashing key and salt is unique from each install.

Additional

If you want to make changes to the class file or extend it, I recommend adding a child class to it (included in v. 1.2.0+). The reason is that when I release updates it will be a lot quicker and easier for you if you just have to edit your own child class file instead of having to update the whole user system class file. This way, you can simply replace your user system class file with the updated version.

The Solid PHP User Management System comes with both the styled version (as seen in the demo) and a none/minimally styled version as well, ready to integrate into your own website.

Support & Documentation

A copy of the documentation is always available in the download as well as online.
