PHP Redirect Click Counter

A simple php script to record click count and redirect a url.

Installation

This project is written in PHP, using MySQL as its primary database.

• Modify MySQL information at the beginning of both redirect.php and click.php according to your settings

// MySQL Database
$servername = "localhost";      // MySQL Host
$username = "user";             // Username for you database
$password = "pass";             // Password with your username
$dbname = "database";           // Database Name

• Put modified redirect.php and click.php to your server for public access.

Usage

If you want to redirect to https://www.google.com, just visit

https://example.com/redirect.php?forward=https://www.google.com

To see click records, just visit

https://example.com/clicks.php

If no http or https query is in the forward string, http:// will be automatically added.

Use //www.google.com if you do not want to specify a query type.
