Introduction to the live coding session focused on user authentication and registration in PHP, following previous episodes of creating a blog and storing data in a database.
User Registration
Discussing the process of user registration, including collecting username, default user role, and hashing passwords before storing in the database.
Creating User Table
Setting up the 'users' table structure to store user information like usernames, email addresses, and passwords securely.
Building Registration Form
Creating a registration form with fields for username, email, and password, emphasizing the importance of validation and form completion.
Hashing Passwords
Explaining the use of PHP's password hashing function to securely encrypt user passwords before storing them in the database.
User Authentication
Implementing user authentication by verifying email format, checking if the email exists in the database, and comparing hashed passwords for login.
Session Creation
Demonstrating the creation of PHP sessions to store user login information using the session superglobal variable for persistent data across pages.
Session Handling in PHP
Discusses the concept of sessions in PHP, storing user information, creating arrays, managing user data securely, and handling user authentication and disconnection.
Creating User Sessions
Explains the process of creating user sessions in PHP, including storing user identifiers such as email and roles securely without passwords, using arrays, and accessing user information.
User Authentication
Covers user authentication processes in PHP, implementing session start, retrieving user information, handling roles, managing connections, and ensuring user logout functionality.
Protecting User Accounts
Discusses the importance of protecting user accounts, managing session start and end, validating user authentication, checking user roles, and ensuring secure user access.
Handling User Profiles
Explains the process of managing user profiles in PHP, displaying user information such as username, email, and pseudo, ensuring session security, and controlling user access to different pages based on roles.
User Authentication and Authorization
Covers user authentication and authorization mechanisms in PHP, ensuring user login, managing user roles, protecting user sessions, and controlling user access to different sections of the website.
Session Management and Authorization
Discusses session management and authorization in PHP, handling user connections, verification of user sessions, protecting user accounts, and ensuring secure user authentication.
Session Handling Best Practices
Covers best practices for session handling in PHP, including protecting user sessions, managing user connections, verifying user authentication, and controlling user access based on roles.
Conclusion and User Interaction
