How do I create a user logon area on my site like a clan?

Nov 6, 2005 12:36AM PST

Hi i'm running a site www.kods3.com on a linux server CGI and PHP data base. I'v always had a conflict with this issue. I wanted to have the ability for users to register and logon to my site. Sounds simple huh, but no. I need something that logs them on as a community to edit their profile and etc like for clan rosters. Most tutorials show how to make logons for protected areas but i want it so users logon and goto a member stat area. I have a forum from phpbb.com on my site currently though so i'm ok with php help.
I know what i'v said sounds confusing lol but it's difficult for me to explain what i don't understand as of yet so any help would be great.

example of what i mean:
i'm a member of kod clan on socom 3.
i go to the site www.kods3.com and register
name, nickname, etc
get into a member area put in my stats from the game manually. view others stats.
now i don't think the users should log onto a blank page but the default site template.

ex:
[Menu] [Menu] [Menu] [Menu] [Logon/off]

oh yeah and when the users choose their stuff i'd like the choices to be from a drop down menu.


anything close to what i'v said please would be the greatest help ever, it took me years and i still haven't found a way to do it. Thank you in advance

this kind of thing takes alot of php/mysql or asp alternatively to code properly. There are premade scripts you can get to install for your clan (i am in a day of defeat clan ) such as clantek but it costs a little bit of money, under 100$.

It's not so easy to code what you are looking for, unless you know a bunch about php
