Important!! In this update, and others, some tutorials have been lacking what we're really looking for. Thanks to user feedback, these haven't been included.

Php: Main - Discussion Thread - Please keel ALL discussion about PHP: Main in that thread. Only post links to new tutorials in this thread. Thanks.

We are continuing our "referall" program. If you put PHP: Main in your signature, you can get on the list under supporters with a link to your website. Simply put a link in your signature, and post here and say that you have put it in. You will be included in the next update.

Lastly, this was a hard update. I tried to accommodate all of the name changes and everything, but I probably missed some, so my appologies. Also, I'm a bit rusty as there hasen't been an update in a long time, so please bare with me :)

As always, please report any mistakes.

Well, my last tutorial was a total failure. I got through making a flash portal and a forum (custom bbs) system... should I go with something like that for a tutorial?

Talk about it here.

PHP: Specific word randomizer

Hope this isn't considered off-topic, but in the future please have my name link to my site.

We need more updates in this topic.

We only need updates if people write more tutorials.
Unfortunatley that dosent seem to be happening =(

PHP: Google script

PHP: Functions & Arrays (Advanced)

Eh, I think PHP: Main is just fine, and certainly wasn't dead :)

Although new tutorials are really slow now, I'm thinking maybe they'll pick up over the summer when people have some more time.

Also, in the next update there's some changes to the appearance so maybe that will have some renewed enthusiasm in it.

But with that said, even with the small amount of new tutorials, people still love it as a learning resource and it's still widely used here as that.

Definitely! See all the people asking where it is? Just because it's not posted in, doesn't mean it isn't used. xD

I plan on writing 3 tutorials to get ahead of Pilot-Doofy. Anyone in need of a certain tutorial that has not been written yet?

Exactly :)

Awesome. I know people were asking for a pagination tutorial, kind of like digg.com style.

PHP:Mad Libs

Just a heads up, the last few tutorials haven't linked to PHP: Main correctly.

Please try to remember to include the link, and make sure the page=9999 to ensure the link leads to the most recent update.

Thanks!

PHP: Including Files

A revampted version of a previous tutorial of mine (PHP Including Files).
Please replace during next update =)

Also, im gonna try and write a new tutorial some time this week.
Any paticular subject people want? Prefarbly something begginner to intermediate difficulty-wise.

Is this thread still being updated?

If new tutorials come, yes.

Of course it is.

And to add onto what elbeko said, the next update will feature a revamped structure that will hopefully encourage people to make more tutorials.

Basic OOP. Apologies, I messed up the link back to PHP Main. Sorry!
