I’m developing a website that when a user/member logins into the website for the first time it shows a tutorial page, just like Twitter.
If anybody could point me in the right direction or even supply the code (If it’s not too long) I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks
Will
If they have to login to your website, you might want to add an extra field in your users table called something like ‘inital_page_viewed’ (default = false).
Once they login the first time and view this page, update this field to true. Only display the page if the field is set to false.
Cookies are a good idea for normal visitors, however if they clear their cookies and go back to the page they will get the ‘tutorial page’.
Its worth bearing in mind the new EU cookie law as well, (not sure if this applies to your website). http://www.ico.gov.uk/for_organisations/privacy_and_electronic_communications/the_guide/cookies.aspx
