Just thought I’d mention that I just started a CMS called Coti (CO mmuni TI(y)). Check it out if you want to! 
Tu habla espanol?
Why not just use MySQL, MySQLi, or PDO for the database? and I also recommend using OOP structure instead of just using the basic PHP syntax. Just a few suggestions when it comes to building a CMS. 
Never mind, I’ve noticed that you are using MySQLi in the “index.php” file. 
Yup 
Seems nice, and thanks for giving me push access:smile: I’ll certainly be helping out with this CMS as much as I can:blush:
Tu habla muy bien.
Why are you speaking in spanish? I replied to Dayron.
Any updates on Coti yet ?
Personally working on authenticayion and users. I’ve also been securing a few security traps 
Nice man 
Do you plan on adding an administration panel ?
Similar to Wordpress, yes.
Sorry.
Just added a configuration file to Coti CMS. So instead of having to write the MySQLi connection script
$mysqli = new mysqli($ip, $user, $password, $database);
if ($mysqli->connect_error) { echo("Could not connect to MySQL database."); exit; }
Over and over again, you can just add one of these scripts to the top of the page when you need to connect to the database.
include('config.php');
or
require_once('config.php');Thank you! Been busy with math tests the last couple of days, sorry! Back to work today
What do you plan on accomplishing today ?
Making users work, first and foremost Then, the god damn navigation bar. I also need to make CSS files for customizability for the site owner aka. user styles.
So a user system for them to register and log in?
Yes.
Dont worry, I know about hashing and salting.
What kind of encryption will you be using? MD5, SHA1, Blowfish, ect… or just create your own ?
I recmmend bcrypt, because most of cryptographic hash functions (SHA, MDA) are easy to crack. I will personally go with something like bcrypt, which is very secure method of storing password.
But SHA256 is okay for basic protection (I use it in my projects too )
Btw. if you are interested, you can read more about password storing in this great article
