you can use session variables to store your users info. im only a newb, but something like this should be on the right trak.

at the top of your login page you need to start sessions before any html is sent to the browser:

<?php
    session_start();
?>

then, where you log the user in set the session variables:

<?php
    if (!isset($_SESSION['user_name'] && $_SESSION['user_email'])) {
        $_SESSION['user_name'] == $_POST['user_name'];
        $_SESSION['user_email'] == $_POST['user_email'];
    }
?>

then on any page you wish to see if the user is logged in:

<?php
    session_start();
    if (!isset $_SESSION['user_name'] && $_SESSION['user_pass'])) {
        // user not logged in, redirect to login page
    } else {
        // user logged in, display page
    }
?>

and if I want o display the email just do :
echo 'user_email'; ?
