If youre trying to use something like phpmyadmin it would be "root" for username and blank for pass until you change it/add your account.

Let us know what thing you are using and we can help

Its not like that its a control panel for this thing and it uses a mysql data based which I have access to and the php file that runs the code.

So i was wondering if I can edit that code so it doesn't go to the database it just looks for it in the file e.g

if $username = "admin"
then bla bla

I can also provide the code via pm

Yeah, here's an example..

Noticed I goofed up on my last post..



Forgot to check if the password was right.. Oops!

Are you talking about PHPMyAdmin?

You shouldn't have to create a form, you would have to edit the config files in order to allow people access depending on how you have it set up on a server or your local machine.

<?php
// Start a session
session_start();

// Correct details to login
$usernameCorrect = "admin";
$passwordCorrect = "admin123";

// Check on submission
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
    // Make it simpler on us for later use
   // It'd be smart to clean the input, but since I don't know
   // if you're using MySQL or PDO, or MySQLi I'll let you do that
   $usernameInput = $_POST['username'];
   $passwordInput = $_POST['password'];
   
   // Check if matches what we want
   if($usernameInput != $usernameCorrect || $passwordInput != $passwordCorrect) {
      // It matches so do whatever with it
   } else {
      // It does not match so maybe show them an error
   }
}
?>
<form method="post">
    <input name="username" type="text" placeholder="Username..">
   <input name="password" type="text" placeholder="Password..">
   <input name="submit" type="button" value="Submit">
</form>

You dun goofed again.

Should be like this


You need to have == instead of != for your logic. Also, using " || " is a boolean OR, you need to use &&.
(Or you would just need to swap round your 'Correct' code block with the 'Incorrect' code block.

You aren't actually using the session variable so there's no need to update your session.

Eh, my bad again. It works fine I just had my comments in the wrong spot. The first bit should return the error to the user and the second should do whatever with it lol.

Forgot to post this but i found a way around it, thanks for the help tho guys!
