Hey, dev.to community,
I’m working on a PHP-based online shop and encountering a couple of issues in my onlineshop.php script. I could use some guidance on how to resolve these problems. Here’s a summary of the issues I’m facing:
Context:
-
File Path:
/var/www/html/online_shop/public/onlineshop/onlineshop.php - Issue: Images aren’t displaying correctly, and I’m receiving PHP warnings about undefined variables.
Code Snippet:
<?php
session_start();
include_once 'db_connect.php';
// Enable error reporting
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
// Handle logout if logout parameter is set
if (isset($_GET['logout']) && $_GET['logout'] == 'true') {
$_SESSION = array();
session_destroy();
header("Location: onlineshop.php");
exit();
}
// Check if the user is logged in
if (isset($_SESSION['user_id'])) {
$navbar_links = '
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="profile.php">Profile</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="onlineshop.php?logout=true">Logout</a>
</li>
';
} else {
$navbar_links = '
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="login.php">Login</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="register.php">Register</a>
</li>
';
}
// Fetch products from database
$sql_fetch_products = "SELECT * FROM products";
$result = $conn->query($sql_fetch_products);
if (!isset($_SESSION['user_id'])) {
header("Location: login.php");
exit();
}
$user_id = $_SESSION['user_id'];
// Fetch username based on user_id
$sql = $conn->prepare("SELECT username FROM users WHERE id = ?");
$sql->bind_param('i', $user_id);
$sql->execute();
$sql->bind_result($username);
$sql->fetch();
$sql->close();
// Fetch chat messages
$chat_query = "SELECT * FROM chat_messages WHERE sender='$username' OR receiver='$username' ORDER BY timestamp DESC";
$chat_result = $conn->query($chat_query);
// Handle sending chat messages
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST' && isset($_POST['chat_message'])) {
$receiver = 'admin'; // Static value for admin
$message = $_POST['chat_message'];
$sender = $username;
$stmt = $conn->prepare("INSERT INTO chat_messages (sender, receiver, message) VALUES (?, ?, ?)");
$stmt->bind_param("sss", $sender, $receiver, $message);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->close();
header("Location: onlineshop.php");
exit;
}

Issues:
Image Path Problem: The image path generated for displaying product images is incorrect. The URL is showing as
/photo_product/photo_product/Screenshot%202024-07-01%20080501.png, which leads to a404 Not Founderror.PHP Warnings: I’m seeing warnings related to undefined variables and array offsets.
Questions:
- Image Path: How can I correct the image path to ensure that images are displayed properly?
- PHP Warnings: What steps can I take to resolve the warnings related to undefined variables and array offsets?
- Debugging Advice: Any suggestions on effective debugging techniques for these issues?
Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
