did you create a new player? Your password has been cut to 12 and when you extended it to 32 the old one stayed 12. You need to create a new player now.

Yeah, delete your old account and make a new one with the same information

Yeah, delete your old account and make a new one with the same information

Yeah, sorry I never elaborated Nexus.

I cleared all of my database and still the same problem occurs. Maybe I should make the password size a bit bigger? Or maybe choose a different kind of encryption if there is one or use none at all.

[ConceptDestiny]

show us your user db table now?

Structure Overview





Players entered in the db

[ConceptDestiny]

$result2 = mysql_num_rows($result);

should be

$result2 = mysql_fetch_array($result);

Remember, mysql_fetch_array is used to grab specific data, while mysql_num_rows is used to count the results (i.e. if the result is > 0). Hope this makes sense.

change it but it still isn't working

[hallsofvallhalla]

take a authenticate.php from later source in the videos and use it. You have changed too many things and it seems to me like a miss placed } You could just take the last source and use its authenticate and it will probably work.

[Nexus]

Yeah that works, I just hate having to use your source halls even thought thats what its there for. I like the idea of making my own coding and the gratification when it works but yeah I will only use your source as a last resort.
