test site stored and personal membersite

Post by gwolff2005 »

Hi, guys,

I need your help. I am a complete newbie but need to do the following...

I need to develop a personla membersite, so when a member logs in, it has a personal greeting, and everything. I managed to do the login page already, but upto now after the login the page would look for everyone the same.
Problem: How can I customize it, e.g. by a personal greeting.

In this member area has to be psychological test, which consists of three pages. After the user has done the test. His test results should be shown on the entry page, after he logs in.
Problem: When the user has now finished the first page and goes to the next one, how can I save the data already, that is does not get lost?
The following is probably a complete questions for beginners: How can I store the data of the test for each user (there will be quite a hundred thousands) so it is saved in hios row and not in someone elses...
Thanks so much in advance for your help. I am LOST at the moment! :banghead:

All depends on how you decide to store the data, assuming you will use a database have a look at php's mysql/mysqli functions, also consider sessions for the greetings as it can be set once on login and then displayed on any page throughout the browsing experience.

Is this something that you bid on? I'm curious to know whether or not this is something you actually know how to do. Sorry, as I said, just wondering.
