Show Home Page on Log In

[stoneygossard]

hi,

I want to have a homepage with a log in feature. But I want it to say 'You are not logged in" or "you are logged in" depending on whatever is the case.
I know how to check db entries etc but should I have the php on the same page in order to position the welcome note ie:

<?php echo "<p>Welcome $_SESSION(username), to my website</p>;?>

Regards

Stoney

You can place the code wherever you would like the message to appear. It all depends on if your login redirects users or uses a single file for processing, or where the user is redirected to on success.

As for the code, it can be done with an if statement

if( isset($_SESSION['username']) )
{
	print 'Welcome ' . $_SESSION['username'] . '.';
}
