directories organisation

Hello,

I'm a new Access_user_class that I find to be a very nice tool.

I have many problem with the directories and sub directories organisation.

/home/mydomain
- www
--my_directory_to_protect
--classes
---access_user

MY QUESTION :
what do I have to put in each directory ?

Hello,

Its not a question of protecting directories, the only thing is to have the right pathes in your scripts.

start with using all files in this folder:

your_root/classes/access_user/

and study these settings (db_config.php):

Code:

define("CLASS_PATH", dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."/"); // the location where the class is executed
$sec_path = "/classes/access_user/"; // a second location where the scripts should be
define("APPLICATION_PATH", $sec_path);

...
...
...

// variables (locations) standard pages (combine the pathes from the top or use your own)
define("LOGIN_PAGE", CLASS_PATH."login.php");
define("START_PAGE", "/classes/access_user/example.php");
define("ACTIVE_PASS_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."activate_password.php");
define("DENY_ACCESS_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."deny_access.php");
define("ADMIN_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."admin_user.php");

[there are no directories to protect but files]

Hello, Olaf,

my understanding of this php script is not complete...
You are rigth : there are no directories to protect but files

I'm trying the solution you proposed and come back later.
Thanks for your help.

HI,

1. protect your directory with .htaccess
2. create a php file to open files (check: http://www.finalwebsites.com/snippets.php?id=4)
3. protect this file with access_user

[In any case, I can't understand the way to configure the diferent files and directories.]

Hello Olaf,

this morning, I have many problems with the email system in my hosting, so I'm not able to verificate my work.

In any case, I can't understand the way to configure the diferent files and directories. 

This is my configuration :

/home/mydomain/www

|+| the_directory_that_contains_files_to_protect
--example.php
--what_else_file_to_put_here.php?

|+| classes
--|+| access_user
------access_user_class.php
------db_config.php

|+| general_authentication_directory
--login.php
--forgot_password.php
--register.php
--update_user.php
--update_user_profile.php
--admin_user.php

MY QUESTIONS :
- Is this organisation good to protect several files in diferent directories ?
- in case of such configuration, what should contain the db_config.php ?

Thans for your help !

try this:

Code:

<?php
define("CLASS_PATH", dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."/"); // the location where the class is executed
$sec_path = "/general_authentication_directory/"; // a second location where the scripts should be 
define("APPLICATION_PATH", $sec_path);
.....
....


// variables (locations) standard pages (combine the pathes from the top or use your own)
define("LOGIN_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."login.php");
define("START_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."example.php");
define("ACTIVE_PASS_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."activate_password.php");
define("DENY_ACCESS_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."deny_access.php");
define("ADMIN_PAGE", APPLICATION_PATH."admin_user.php");


?>

of course you have to change pathes at the top of each file according this structure.
