I need a tutor

Post by gaogier »

Yes, thats right, This is the correct place to put this, at least i think it is.

I want to use this post, for help, with code, and talking about how i shoudl create this software.

Ok, this is what it needs to have, but i dont know how to do it.

Ill do a little expernation of what it will be, and then, ill explain how i want this to work. the only php coding i have ever done, was basicly, using someone elses code as a reference, so i didnt really learn, anyway. the site is a fansite for a game. this game has quest the user can do, and when they complete them, they get quest points.


what i want, is, a user login pannel, users can sign up, or login. when they login, they can see their accounts, which they can add more or delete them. when they select an account, they can see what quests they need to do, and which ones tehy have already done, in 2 seperate lists.

On one list, it will be colour coded, if a user has, 103 quest points, but needs, 104quest points, the quest is yellow or has done the quests needed for the user to do the quest, but if there is a quest that the requirements are, 103, and have allt he skill requirements, they can do the quest.

The skills can be added manualy for now.

when the user has the requirements of the quest points, but needs to gain more levels, again, it would be yellow.

when, a user has all the quest points, and all the skill levels, needed to do the quest, it turns green, then, the user can click on it, and it will say, where to start the quest, how to start the quest, the items the user needs, where he/she can add the number of items you have, this would take away from the amount of items you need intotal, therefore, it say, how many more you would need.

When you have all the requirements including the items, you can click on the guide which is already made and uponline, and when the user has completed the quest, they can select done, and then it will be moved into the other list.

If the user clicks done, but did not mean to, the user needs to click on the link, then say, not done.


i have no idea how to do this, so please if you can help us, please tutor me, help me with a lot of coding problems we are bound to come accross, help us give us a head start.

thanks.

It would be helpful to yourself and anyone else here trying to assist you to at least have a basic understanding of the language. So the best place for you to start would either be the online manual, any one of the millions of beginners tutorials scattered throughout the web, or at a Barnes & Nobel in the computers/internet section. Without a basic knowledge, you're asking contributors here to rewrite that which is already freely available to you, namely, beginner's PHP tutorials and books. Once you understand the basic tools you'll have at your disposal, it will be more apparent how to apply those tools to any given problem.

This is a rather large project that you are undertaking. What I might consider doing is downloading an application (like phpBB or Wordpress or some other open source PHP application) and see if you can't take apart their login code. It might be easier than trying to find someone that will walk the thing with you step by step.
