PHP tutorial that will show you how to display your first 5 new members?

Question

Is there a tutorial that will show you how to code your own PHP script that will display your most recent registered members?

Answer 1

I guess, you are using MySQL. Then look at PHP manual: mysql_fetch_array (see examples). Just query should be something like:

SELECT * FROM users_table ORDER BY register_date DESC LIMIT 5

Answer 2

Query your database table, eg:

SELECT * FROM members ORDER BY member_id DESC LIMIT 5

gets you the 5 most recent additions to that table. Assuming when they register, they get a new entry in the table and member_id is your auto-incrementing Primary Key...
