QuickRegister Login
Please read all the information below before your start.
- There are 2 ways to protect a page with SQL QuickRegister. The first is to use a CGI REDIRECT SCRIPT which checks that the
user is logged in and then looks up a code for the name of the page to dynamically display. The second method is to use a
PHP WRAPPER on your HTML file. You simply add one line of PHP code to your HTML file then save it as a PHP file.
- There are number of configurations which the application can be setup for. Currently it is setup to
restrict access by IP Address and User Agent (operating system and browser type.)
- Other Modules and Features which come with the package but are turned off for this demonstration are:
- Groups Module - break up the users into different groups so that each group has its specific custom login page.
- PayPal Module - the user registers then pays a fee to activate their account via PayPal
- E-mail Userid Feature - use the e-mail address as the userid and optionally restrict the e-mail address to
a specific domain.
- Captcha Image Feature - install the perl module GD graphics library and use an image with random characters
to verify the registration to stop robots from submitting spam.
Instructions
- Try to access a php protected page under the folder /members. Not being logged in you will be
brought back to this page.
PHP Protected Page - click here -
- Register
- Check your e-mail for confirmation. For this demonstration you will also receive the e-mail received by the adminstrator.
- Test out the Forget your password option.
- Check your e-mail for your password recovery.
- Make sure your cookies are on.
- Login - after you log in a session cookie is created which tracks you as a user, and the time.
- After you log in you can test out:
- the links to your pages to prevent bookmarking. This is done by turning your cookies on and off (or deleting them.)
- update your profile i.e.; modify your e-mail address to something fictitious
- the adminstrative web panel. You can test out the activation and expiry date features.
- after a time-lapse of 15 minutes you will be asked to log in again. (The time is configurable).
- allows only ONE LOGIN from a given IP address and computer/Browser within the lapse time; in this case 15 minutes.
Try the following experiments:
- Try to log in from another browser or computer with a different IP address before the
15 minutes of inactivity are up. The login will be disallowed.
- Log out then log in from another browser or computer with a different IP address. The login will be allowed.
(It can be disallowed but one needs to adjust a specific parameter (see documentation)).
- Log in. Log in again but after 15 minutes of inactivity from a different browser or IP address. The login will be allowed.
- Change your expiry date from the Adminstrative Web Panel then log in again to see how the renewal works.
