Project structure

[lastnerve]

I luv UserSpice. I've already developed the pages for a new site and I want to use UserSpice for logins, security, etc. Is UserSpice meant to be used as a wrapper for all my web pages or should I use set_include_path to access it?

Glad you're enjoying it!

The great thing about UserSpice is that it doesn't really matter how you use it.
You basically need to require_once the init.php (with proper path) and add the line

Code:

<?php if (!securePage($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])){die();} ?>

Beyond that, as long as userspice knows where to look for your files, you can use as much or as little as our code/structure as you want.

OK, Thanks alot!

I guess I just don't know what I'm doing.

You said "You basically need to require_once the init.php (with proper path) " and I've been really struggling to find a way to get the proper path.

I added the userSpice41 folder within my site folder, but in users/init.php the value of
$abs_us_root.$us_url_root is C:/xampp/htdocs/, and if I add "userSpice41" to $us_url_root of course I get $abs_us_root.$us_url_root is C:/xampp/htdocs/userSpice41. But I also get the message:"
You must go into the Admin Panel and click the Manage Pages button to add this page to the database. Doing so will make this error go away."

I need some help figuring out a workable way to work userSpice41 into my site file structure.

Can ya help?

Ok. So you're using xampp. Let's say that you have your project installed in C:/xampp/htdocs/userSpice41, which would come up in the browser as http://localhost/userSpice41

Then inside that you have folders like /users and /usersc

If you want to put all of your files in the http://localhost/userSpice41 then all you need to do is point the init file to

Code:

require_once 'users/init.php';

If you're putting your files in http://localhost/userSpice41/myFiles then all of your project files in that folder need to have

Code:

require_once '../users/init.php';

So the second question is if userspice is monitoring the folder that your files are in. If your files are in
http://localhost/userSpice41/
http://localhost/userSpice41/users
http://localhost/userSpice41/usersc

then the answer is automatically yes. If you're doing something like
http://localhost/userSpice41/myFiles

Open the file z_us_root.php.

Line 2 has an array,

Code:

$path=[”,’users/’,’usersc/’];

change it to

Code:

$path=[”,’users/’,’usersc/’,'myFiles/'];

I hope that helps.
