Making Setup Guide

  • All the database related code is in dbCon.php file so you don't need to change it multiple times.
  • The Forgot Password is uses your email address to send email to the users as a password reset email. You can find all the code related to email sending in mail.php . You just need to change the value of $mail->Username to your email address and the value of $mail->Password to your email password. I used my alternative gmail account for this purpose. NOTE: you need to make sure that you have allowed less secure app in your gmail settings. If you don't know how to do it then follow this guide https://hotter.io/docs/email-accounts/secure-app-gmail/
  • If you are hosting it live then you need to change the navbar links found in the includes/header.php file.
  • Make sure to add the database from the Database folder to your server's PHPMYADMIN.
