Helllo, i have built a registration form in WFB and want to now make a login form, has anyone actually ever managed to do this? I have a login script that might work but but not even the guys that made this can tell me where to put it to make it function, which is very handy... So using WFB , has anyone ever made a login form that works???

Basically a log in form allows a system to check if a person has already registered and that while they have their browser pointed to the site they are actively connected.

As I see it a WFB form can do just that. You do not need to send an email although I have not got past a warning produced that there is no reply. I haven't sussed that out yet. maybe a gmail account to send it to.

When the input into the form has been made then I would replace the form php with the same name but different script. I would Post the values, It is a matter of checking whether those values ie ID and pass exists. On failure send them back to the form on success they have access to the site. You also have to deal with forgotten login info. Look at Sessions which passes information along the chain.

It is a pretty full on exercise, not impossible but it does start to become very involved fast.
The process to start
Input > Form > Post to strip the values> interrogate database> Pass or fail My advice is take a few of the tutorials available on php. and find a mate to annoy :)
