How do you protect a PHP script from the average user?

Me too, i would be interested in removing all the protections

 

Hi Dman .. are u from Maxwcoders.com?

So u want to removing all protecting script?

Why?

Bcoz i think this thread title is about protected script

Thnx

 

I'm not sure, you maybe enable your buyers to use your script like that

<?php

include("yoursite.com/yourscript.php?parameter1=..&parameter2=..");
?>

And add your script to yourscript.php with some parameters from &_GET and at the end of the script an echo() .

you may then add restriction that only some websites can get the result.

I'm not sure, you may test it.

 

I am in the same situation. I am going to create a trial version for my media script and I want to have any be able to download it and test it out before they buy. What I plan on doing is removing majority of the code for my trial so the script will just play media and the code for uploading media, user registration, etc will be deleted.

I will probably encode it but may not need to. I will also have a full access demo on my server. So people can login into the admin panel be able to change the settings and do whatever they want. Then every hour or so I will restore the database along with all the files.

 

Like everyone has previously said, if there is a way to encode it, theres a way to decode it. if you want to give trial scripts, you should simply have a demo area on your own website where users can test how it works, giving plenty of variations of how the script can be implemented if required
