Thanks a lot. I had been looking for a good tutorial for Codeigniter 4. This will help.

I'm certainly not new to programming but I'm a framework n00b, I never needed to dive in until now. Your videos are just what I was looking for, I've had trouble finding a quick way in on how to use it properly. I believe Codeigniter is a good framework to start with, maybe I'll use it forever since the scaffolding stuff which for example Laravel provides seems nice at first sight, but I think you first have to do it yourself manually to actually understand what you're doing and give you control over it.

It would be good if in the future you can make a small CMS using version 4. Nice video, nice job.

Hi Alex. Thanks for your time in producing these tutorials. Would it be possible to get one using the Shield package?

Excellent bro! I have subscribed to you. How to manage user roles? Please make a video. I want admin and seller roles on the different dashboards.

Great tutorial! I have been using CI3 for more than 5 years and I'm starting now to transfer my codes to CI4. One question, what is the difference of setting up the variables in .env and setting them up in app/Config/App.php?

[glenescobar]

thanks for the video my friend.
its the same to make in AWS?

[cerad]

Surprised you are using xampp instead of the built in development server. Good video.

This video is far too old for 4.4.1. I was able to get this to work with CI 4.4.1. It took some doing and some splitting up of some lines and update the required functions in the three filter files. But because I work in subfolders, the code keeps trying to look into my localhost root rather than my project folder, but that should be easy to fix. I just hope there aren't other unforeseen issues as I have not tried logging in, registering, etc. I am taking baby steps with this, but so far, I like it! I edited this post because I don't give up easy with the issues I faced. I tackled them and conquered. It feels good because it really did NOT take but 15-20 minutes to fix. Not as tough as debugging regular PHP error message jargon!

[sonalsahu]

hey Alex, whenever you create any project you change the directory path from httpd.conf file. can't we skip public from url using htaccess redirect ????
