So I haven't really worked with PHP Sessions much and trying to learn. Despite trying to look online I'm a bit stuck. So I have a login page which works and lets people login but when they get to the welcome page I can't display anything other than the id, username or password (if I really wished)
So here's the code for the login page~:
<?php
// Initialize the session
session_start();
// Check if the user is already logged in, if yes then redirect him to welcome page
if(isset($_SESSION["loggedin"]) && $_SESSION["loggedin"] === true){
header("location: welcome.php");
exit;
}
// Include config file
require_once "config.php";
// Define variables and initialize with empty values
$username = $password = "";
$username_err = $password_err = "";
// Processing form data when form is submitted
if($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST"){
// Check if username is empty
if(empty(trim($_POST["username"]))){
$username_err = "Please enter username.";
} else{
$username = trim($_POST["username"]);
}
// Check if password is empty
if(empty(trim($_POST["password"]))){
$password_err = "Please enter your password.";
} else{
$password = trim($_POST["password"]);
}
// Validate credentials
if(empty($username_err) && empty($password_err)){
// Prepare a select statement
$sql = "SELECT id, firstname, lastname, email, phone, username, password FROM tourn_admins WHERE username = ?";
if($stmt = mysqli_prepare($link, $sql)){
// Bind variables to the prepared statement as parameters
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, "s", $param_username);
// Set parameters
$param_username = $username;
// Attempt to execute the prepared statement
if(mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt)){
// Store result
mysqli_stmt_store_result($stmt);
// Check if username exists, if yes then verify password
if(mysqli_stmt_num_rows($stmt) == 1){
// Bind result variables
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $id, $username, $hashed_password);
if(mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt)){
if(password_verify($password, $hashed_password)){
// Password is correct, so start a new session
session_start();
// Store data in session variables
$_SESSION["loggedin"] = true;
$_SESSION["id"] = $id;
$_SESSION["username"] = $username;
$_SESSION["firstname"] = $firstname;
// Redirect user to welcome page
header("location: welcome.php");
} else{
// Display an error message if password is not valid
$password_err = "The password you entered was not valid.";
}
}
} else{
// Display an error message if username doesn't exist
$username_err = "No account found with that username.";
}
} else{
echo "Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later.";
}
}
// Close statement
mysqli_stmt_close($stmt);
}
// Close connection
mysqli_close($link);
}

Then Heres the code for the welcome page:
<?php
// Initialize the session
session_start();
// Check if the user is logged in, if not then redirect him to login page
if(!isset($_SESSION["loggedin"]) || $_SESSION["loggedin"] !== true){
header("location: login.php");
exit;
}
?>

So I'm trying to be able to display all the rows data. So I have ID, Firstname, Lastname, Email, Phone, Username, Password and Timestamp. I just want to be able to display them through the session like $_SESSION["firstname"]; As you may be able to see I have tried to have a go but is unsuccesfull. Again, am learning here so if you see anything which could be better, any critisim would be apprciated :) Thanks in advance!
You're not binding enough results to your prepared statement:
$sql = "SELECT id, firstname, lastname, email, phone, username, password FROM tourn_admins WHERE username = ?";
Your statement fetches 7 columns, but your mysqli_stmt_bind_result call only has 3 variables:
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $id, $username, $hashed_password);
You need to add variables for all the columns you are reading in the query i.e.
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $id, $firstname, $lastname, $email, $phone, $username, $hashed_password);
