I want to redirect the users from the same log-in page.
folder structure...
root
|
--------/application/app.php <---------- for normal user
|
--------/administration/admin.php <------- for admin user
|
-------- index.php (Log-in page)
User Table
ID USER_NAME PASSWORD USER_TYPE
1 admin pass@admin admin
2 user pass@user user
If the login user's user type is admin then he/she will be redirected to /administration/admin.php else /application/app.php.
How can I do it ?
Regards,
After checking the username and password. You can check their usertype and save it to a variable in this case $user_type.
$user_type = $row['user_type'] //get the usertype of the user from table row in your database
if( $user == 1){ //check if user or password is correct from query
if($user_type == "normal user"){ //check usertype
header("Location:/application/app.php"); //if normal user redirect to app.php
}else{
header("Location:/administration/admin.php"); //if admin user redirect to admin.php
}
}
