Does anyone no of a good free php members area script?

Example: I have programs that I sell and ones that I give away ... I would like to allow members when buying a program to be able to download it immediatly after payment. And gain access to more features on the website.

Any thoughts would be great. Thank You.

A Forum?

Any more details? Do you mean more help, more control. Please elaborate.

Basically a multi member login script written in PHP preferably.

Are you using any website software?

The only scripts that I have used is phpBB3 other than that Its html and javascripts. The only editors that I use is notepad and PHP Editor 2.22. (for the particular site discussing)

Use the phpBB3 database as you log in for the members area.
Easiest way I can think.

What's the members area contain?

I suppose I could do that ...

The members area will contain all software that we offer including the paid software. (mostly nonintrusive macro's for games) Althought we are starting dev on a php editor (drag and drop).

vBulletin is really good for lots of things, even if you just use it to integrate your log-in system + static pages + etc.

You could also convert to e107.
Of course, this is cheating by using a CMS, but meh.

Okay I have decided to start learning php the only problem is I have nobody to help me with my scripts so i figure why not ask you guys.

I have this for a login script and the one below it as the interpretor. It doesn't work any advice would be great.

(right now all it does is you type your login information in and its supposed to read it back to me when i hit login.)

Login Area:

Code:

<form action="membersarea.php" method="post">
 <p>Your Login ID: <input type="text" name="LoginID" ="LoginID" /></p>
 <p>Your Password: <input type="password" name="Password" id="Password" /></p>
 <p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" /></p>
</form>
<font size="2">Forgot your Password? or<br>Register for FREE!!!</font>

Members Area:

Code:

Login ID is <?php echo htmlspecialchars($_POST['LoginID']); ?>  <br>
Password is <?php echo (int)$_POST['Password']; ?>

Deffinatly in progress. But its a start for a newbie.

What error do you get??

Code:

<?php

echo 'Your username: ' . $_POST['LoginID'];
echo 'Your password: ' . $_POST['Password'];

?>

Haven't gotten to really learning code off-by-heart.
I'll do it soonish, but I been overloaded with assignments! ><
