PHP Login, User Management & Site Security
Userbase is a full featured PHP user login and user management system with a huge number of extras that you may require when setting up a new website. Ajaxed front end with a noScript version and a fully ajaxed admin CP using delicious amounts of jQuery to make user management a pleasure. Did I mention it also fully supports Facebook, Twitter and OpenID user log-ins? Well it does!
Userbase also contains a built-in site traffic analytics system (siteStats) that allows you to easily track conversion rates on a range of metrics in real time – no more waiting around for 24 hours before getting your data – allowing you to leverage mico-marketing techniques before leads go cold.
Drill down into different metrics to build up an image of your digital demographic.

Documentation & Code Examples
Installing userbase is a breeze with an installer package and I’ve added a load of dummy data so you can just test it out right away. I have also included, just like with all my apps, a full set of documentation to get you started. The documentation contains code examples, feature explanations and as always I’ve included live code samples to help you understand all the features.
Protecting a page only takes a few lines of code but at the same time it’s feature packed.
You can see example code of how to protect a page and all the other documentation here before you buy.
Requirements
MySQL, PHP 5 .2 or above, jQuery 1.4 or above
jQuery & Happy Web Servers
All my apps are built to shift as much work from your server to the client browser. So a lot of work normally done in PHP , such as repeating data into templates, is carried out by jQuery/JavaScript. PHP is mostly used to get/put data into the database, server side validation and some more ‘heavy lifting’ that cannot be done in the client browser.
Support
The download contains help files to get you started.
If you are having issues installing or with basic implementation then drop me an email and I will try to reply within 48 hours.
If you’re doing something a little more interesting with the system I’ll try my best to provide guidance on how it should be done – while pointing out any possible pitfalls
