Authorization on the site

it is not clear how to do authorization on soap

just like by login, just use not Lugin, but email (everything is simple), and change the data entry check in the login field to check the soap

function email($input) { $check = '/^[a-z0-9!#$%&*+-=?^_`{|}~]+(\.[a-z0-9!#$%&*+-=?^_`{|}~]+)*'; $check.= '@([-a-z0-9]+\.)+([az]{2,3}'; $check.= '|info|aero|name)$/ix'; if (preg_match($check, $input)) { return false; } else { return true; } } 

output of your page

as I understand it is a profile, right? everything is simple here, just output data about the user from the database, create a link for the edit form

in order to organize a closed zone, use the sessions and cookies

I need a ready solution whenever possible

I think that for you to write here, no one, nothing will be, there is a little different than the site of freelancers. ideas you gave, there will be some specific questions on the implementation of authorization, we will always answer

Then the question is to recover the password? how to do?

1. Create a form where the user will enter their login to recover
2. Check if there is a user in the database
3. If the user is in the database, then we generate a new password.
4. For security, I advise you to keep your passwords encrypted. Therefore, we overtake in md5 hash.
5. We rewrite the password to the database already hashed

6. We send a password for this soap

   // send a password to this soap

   mail ($ mail, "Request to recover password", "Hello $ login is your new password: $ string");
