this was created on garbage free hosting so it probably works anywhere you can get php 7.3 and some new version of mysql
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(yes it breaks after php 8.0 i dont care to figure out why)

# why you shouldn't use this
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- the account system is from some tutorial
|
|
|
|
|
- there's probably some vulnerability that allows code execution
|
|
|
|
|
- comments SUCK!!! they look so awful
|
|
|
|
|
- it uses mysqli instead of something more secure like pdo
|
|
|
|
|
- the logout button is always visible even when you log out
|

|
|
|
- the navbar buttons are inconsistent
|
|
|
|
|
- the colors are ugly!!!
