I'm fairly new to Codegniter framework. I wanna set a session to my website but as soon as I hit the back button of my browser it goes to the main(login) page of my website and when I click next the page shows not found. Also, on the welcome page I've a user button when I hit that too it takes me to my login page and yet the session data is still there.

Here is the code for my controller(Welcome.php):

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Welcome extends CI_Controller {


    public function index()
    {
        $this->home();
    }

    public function home()
    {
        if($this->session->all_userdata('is_logged_in')==1){
            $this->load->view('welcome_message');
        }
        else{
            $data['title'] = 'ABC';
            $this->load->view('login', $data);
        }
    }

function loginapi()
{       
    if ($this->session->all_userdata('is_logged_in')==1) {
        $this->load->view('welcome_message', $this->session->all_userdata);
    }
    else{
        $this->load->library('form_validation');
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('username','Username','required');
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('password','Password','required');
        if ($this->form_validation->run()) {
            $username = $this->input->post('username');
            $password = $this->input->post('password');    
            $payload = json_encode( array( "username"=> $username, 
 "password"=> $password ) );
            $curl_handle = curl_init();
            curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, 
 '../api/dashboard/login');
            curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
            curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
            curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $payload);

            $buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle);
            $httpcode = curl_getinfo($curl_handle, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);

            curl_close($curl_handle);
            var_dump($httpcode);
            $result = json_decode($buffer);
            var_dump($result->empid);

            if($httpcode == 200)
            {
                echo 'User has been updated.';
                $this->load->driver('session');
                //return $result;
                $data['empid'] = $result->empid;
                $data['username']=$this->input->post('username');
                $data['password']=$this->input->post('password');
                $data['title'] = 'ABC';
                $data['is_logged_in'] = '1';
                $this->session->set_userdata($data);

                $this->load->view('welcome_message', $data);
            }

            else
            {
                echo 'Something has gone wrong';
            }
        }
    else{
        $this->load->view('login'); 
        }
    }
}

function getdata()
{       
            if ($this->session->all_userdata('is_logged_in')==1) {

            $curl_handle = curl_init();
            curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_URL, 
'../api/dashboard/getUser');
            curl_setopt($curl_handle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
            $buffer = curl_exec($curl_handle);
            $httpcode = curl_getinfo($curl_handle, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);

            curl_close($curl_handle);
            var_dump($httpcode);
            $result = json_decode($buffer);
            var_dump($result);

            if($httpcode == 200)
            {

                //return $result;
                $data['response'] = $result;
                $this->load->view('hr', $data);
             }

            else
            {
                echo 'Something has gone wrong';
            }
        }
        else{
            $this->load->view('login');
    }
}
 public function logout(){
    $this->session->sess_destroy();
    redirect('welcome/home');
}

}

My session data looks like this:

{
  '__ci_last_regenerate' => int 1493105150
  'empid' => string '13' (length=2)
  'username' => string 'user@example.xyz' (length=18)
  'password' => string 'password' (length=6)
  'title' => string 'ABC' (length=12)
  'is_logged_in' => string '1' (length=1)
}

  • all_userdata() is DEPRECATED for more read [here](https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/sessions.html) – Gopal Bhuva Apr 25 '17 at 07:55

you need use $this->session->userdata('is_logged_in') for get session value

  • this solved on problem of mine. Thank you. I also want my website to go back and forth between pages by clicking back and forward buttons in the browser but it always says me to resubmit the form – Jayesh Rohira Apr 25 '17 at 07:53
  • you need to refresh your page while clicking on back button. Refer this [question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20899274/how-to-refresh-page-on-back-button-click) – Gopal Bhuva Apr 25 '17 at 07:56
  • @GopalBhuva I tried putting ' onunload="" ' in my body tag but it didn't work for the forward button. and I don't know how that new PHP file in the answer is supposed to be integrated. – Jayesh Rohira Apr 25 '17 at 08:23
  • try to refresh using `header("Refresh:0");` – Gopal Bhuva Apr 25 '17 at 08:30
  • @GopalBhuva Sorry man this doesn't work either it's giving me an error "Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\wamp\www\CodeIGN\application\controllers\Welcome.php:115) " – Jayesh Rohira Apr 25 '17 at 08:44
  • @GopalBhuva Ignore the above comment. Sorry for that. It's working perfectly. Thanks a lot. – Jayesh Rohira Apr 25 '17 at 08:50

You should change this line, checking the session value

  if($this->session->all_userdata('is_logged_in')==1){
          $this->load->view('welcome_message');
     }

As

if($this->session->userdata('is_logged_in')==1)
{
   $this->load->view('welcome_message');
}

You can use === operator in a better way

  //as your session value is string
 if($this->session->userdata('is_logged_in')=== '1')
  {
     $this->load->view('welcome_message');
 }
