Need help with my php website

bob_1966

I have a Real-Estate website www.GreatHomeLiving.com and I am not very good with php, so I am looking for some one who can help me make some changes to my site. All I want to do is make it so when people sign up for our free listing service they can login and post there listings right away. Right now it works like this. When a new customer signs up they have to wait untill I go to my admin panal and activate there account. I would like to make this automated so I don't have to do anything and my customers will be happy. Right now I am loosing a lot of people because they won't come back and post there listings after I activate there account. It just takes to long and they go els where.

I would be very greatful for any help you can give me.

If you want better help, I'd suggest outlining what it is you know, and a better flow of your logic. What type of system are you looking at: mySQL, Postgre, MSSQL? Are you going to use a Flat-File Db, or any DB? What is it that you do to "activate" an account?

Answers to those questions would help us guide you in the right direction. If you're looking for a 1-on-1 helper for hire, check out www.scriptlance.com.

I know that it is mySQL and I know that my server has a database listed but I can not get into it. As for the account activation I have to go online to my admin lanal and log in then go to "Agents" then I have to scroll down to the bottom of the page and there is a drop down box that has all the Ad info like price and time. I have to pick one then hit save, after that the account is active and the person can login with the user name & passwork they created. I am sorry I don't know much about this stuff but I'm trying to get with the program learning a little at a time.

Hmm... okay... so when they join they're added to the database? Go into your "register.php" file and open it up. Find out where the registration form posts to. Open that file (if different from register.php). Look for the query that says "INSERT INTO .... () VALUES()" or something similar. Take note of what line in what file that is.

Now, we'll take it from there. Also, what software is this?

would you mind if I send you the file so you can take a look at it. I have saved it on a word doc so I could email it to you. Let me know if this is ok with you.

Thanks

How about you just post the code here. That way if anyone else wants to help you, they aren't ostricized by you only giving the code to one person.
