Private URL to members profile

[universal]

version 1.1

Everything what is needed is:
config.php - from 4images
.htaccess file (must be in folder where who.php will be)
who.php (you can name it how you want)

now no test needed, just set your url and try it. I`ve tested it only on my server.
will work only with this link http://your_url/who/user name
not with http://your_url/who/user name/


.htaccess

Code: [Select]

<files *>
Options MultiViews
</files>
who.php

Code: [Select]

<?
// Settings
///////////////////////////////////////////

$url = "http://www.pramoga.net";
$table = "4images_users"; //do not edit if you have not changed table prefix

// Code
///////////////////////////////////////////

include "config.php";
$a_url = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$i = explode("/", $a_url);
$b = count($i);
$b = $b-1;
$i = str_replace(array("%20"), " ", $i[$b]);
if (($i != "") and ($i != "guest"))
{
$db = mysql_connect("$db_host", "$db_user", "$db_password") or die ("Error");
@mysql_select_db("$db_name", $db) or die ("DB not found");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT user_id FROM `$table` WHERE user_name='$i'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$id = $row['user_id'];
header("Location: ".$url."/member.php?action=showprofile&user_id=".$id."");
}
else
{
header("Location: ".$url."");
}
?>

version 1

Just a little script that I made for my site
A personal addres for users, to profile.

DEMO: http://www.pramoga.net/who/admin/ (admin is user name, existing in 4images gallery)

So, first I want to explain how it works
"who" is not a folder, it`s originaly a script called who.php, to use this script without extension .php you will need to put .htaccess file into the folder where who.php is. The code of .htaccess is:

Code: [Select]

<files *>
Options MultiViews
</files>
So the first thing is done
Second is very important for script who.php and it depends on your url, how many slashes "/" there is. I made a little test to find out what number for variables you will need.

test.php

Code: [Select]

<?
$url = "http://www.pramoga.net"; //your url
$url_extender = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$all_url = $url.$url_extender;
print_r(explode("/", $all_url));
?>
Change url in this script and go to it like that
http://www.pramoga.net/test/admin (can be another user name)
or
http://www.pramoga.net/test.php/admin (can be another user name)

DEMO: http://www.pramoga.net/test/admin
We need a number of user name, So we take it from here
Array (

• => http: [1] => [2] => www.pramoga.net [3] => test.php [4] => admin )
  The number is 4
  
  We can go to final step
  
  Script who.php
  
  Code: [Select]
  <?
/////////////////////////////////////////////
// Originaly made for http://www.pramoga.net
// If you made any modifications, feel free
// to contact with me and share your code ;)
/////////////////////////////////////////////

$url = "http://www.pramoga.net";

/////////////////////////////////////////////
include "config.php";
$url_extender = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]; // gets url end
$all_url = $url.$url_extender; // i dont know why, but i make all url...
$i = explode("/", $all_url); // then I delete all slashes
$i = $i[4]; // when I get array of symbols, I take fourth symbol (it depends on url)
$i = str_replace(array("%20"), " ", $i); // replaces %20 with simple space " "
if (($i != "") and ($i != "guest")) //if url is with name and it`s not guest
{
$db = mysql_connect("$db_host", "$db_user", "$db_password") or die ("Error"); // connecting to db
@mysql_select_db("$db_name", $db) or die ("DB not found"); // selecting db
$result = mysql_query("SELECT user_id FROM `4images_users` WHERE user_name='$i'"); //querying mysql, and selecting users id from db
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$id = $row['user_id']; //selected id seting to variable $id
//finally
header("Location: ".$url."/member.php?action=showprofile&user_id=".$id.""); //setting header location to members profile
}
else //if no name was given
{
header("Location: ".$url.""); //setting header location to index page
}
// thats all :)
?>
  Find
  Code: [Select]
  $i[4]; and change 4 to your number, that you find in test.php
  
  It`s explained step by step, so it`s very simple
  Upload it to the server and try

[universal]

A little corection if somebody uses this plugin
A bug when user name contains spaces,
So add this code

Code: [Select]

$i = str_replace(array("%20"), " ", $i);
after this line

Code: [Select]

$i = $i[4]; // when I get array of symbols, I take fourth symbol (it depends on url)
more symbols can be added for replacing, by editing this array("%20","symbol","symbol","symbol")

[ascanio]

who do i make the .htaccess file? with the Notepad?

[V@no]

yes, any text editors.

[ascanio]

ok i did it i create the .htaccess and i run the test and i got the number 5 but when I point to /who/admin it goes to my home page :S

[universal]

This code shows your browser to go to the homepage

Code: [Select]

else //if no name was given
{
header("Location: ".$url.""); //setting header location to index page
}
This code is active only when this code is true

Code: [Select]

if (($i != "") and ($i != "guest")) //if url is with name and it`s not guest
if no name was given or name was "guest"

[ascanio]

so do i have to modify someything?

[universal]

can you give me a link?

[ascanio]

sure : http://www.girlsandgirls.net/who/admin

[universal]

If it is not dificult to you
comment line

Code: [Select]

header("Location: ".$url.""); //setting header location to index page and write a line after

Code: [Select]

echo $i,"<br>";
echo $all_url;
its strange... and i cant say what happened so i need to view these variables.

[V@no]

actualy for best result in debugin mod_rewrite is use this:

Code: [Select]

if ($user_info['user_level'] == ADMIN)
{
  echo "<pre>GET:<br>";
  print_r($_GET);
  echo "<br><br>Query string:<br>";
  echo "<b>".$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]."</b>";
  echo "<br><br>Redirect query string:<br>";
  echo "<b>".$_SERVER["REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING"]."</b>";
  echo "</pre>";
}

[universal]

try version 1.1 I`ve made some modifications, now you wont need any tests

[ascanio]

I try the new version and it does not work
http://www.girlsandgirls.net/who/admin

Code: [Select]

Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/bhfqyruw/public_html/who.php on line 21

[universal]

[ascanio]
