How to create a login & registration system in Codeigniter
Codeigniter version: 3.1.6
After you download unzip the code into your xampp or wampp and rename the folder to codeigniter and then do the below configurations first.
Open and edit /codeigniter/application/config/config.php
$config['base_url'] = 'http://localhost/codeigniter/index.php';
then,
update your database settings in /codeigniter/application/config/database.php
$db['default'] = array( 'dsn' => '', 'hostname' => 'localhost', 'username' => 'root', 'password' => '', 'database' => 'codeigniter', 'dbdriver' => 'mysqli', 'dbprefix' => '', 'pconnect' => FALSE, 'db_debug' => (ENVIRONMENT !== 'production'), 'cache_on' => FALSE, 'cachedir' => '', 'char_set' => 'utf8', 'dbcollat' => 'utf8_general_ci', 'swap_pre' => '', 'encrypt' => FALSE, 'compress' => FALSE, 'stricton' => FALSE, 'failover' => array(), 'save_queries' => TRUE );
Now open phpmyadmin / mysql, and create a new database called 'codeigniter' and execute the below queries:
-- -- Table structure for table `users` -- CREATE TABLE `users` ( `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL, `name` varchar(100) NOT NULL, `email` varchar(100) NOT NULL, `password` varchar(50) NOT NULL, `date_time` datetime NOT NULL ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1; -- -- Indexes for table `users` -- ALTER TABLE `users` ADD PRIMARY KEY (`user_id`); -- -- AUTO_INCREMENT for table `users` -- ALTER TABLE `users` MODIFY `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, AUTO_INCREMENT=1;
This will create a new table in your database called 'users'.
Basic configuration are done now.
Run your application to see the application is working.
