looking for a really simple login solution
Hi,
I'm not actually sure where to begin with this or what form it should take.
I'm just looking for a really simple login solution.
1. I will be providing my users with a customer ID. So, they don't even create a username. I'll just give them an ID like d8a798-001.
2. I will create their customer page. It's not a dynamic page. It's just simply a page that has what service of mine they're using, when their next payment is due and stuff like that. I simply edit that page and upload it to the server.
3. On each page of my site is just a simple login form with one field for the customer ID and the login button. So they just simply enter their customer ID into that form and hit 'login' and it takes them to their page.
So basically I just need the customer ID to match up with the customer page in some way (but not visible to the public), and then when someone enters their customer ID, it will take them to their customer page.
It's sort of so simple that I don't know where to begin :) I'm finding lots of stuff about PHP and databases and validation and the usual login solutions, but can't find something along these lines. I don't really mind what form it takes, I'm just looking for a simple solution for the above. Would really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.
