Recreational PHP converts a polished cannabis retail design into a dynamic, server-driven dispensary website with PHP 8.1, MVC architecture, and MySQL at its core. All 16 pages are backed by controllers and models that pull product data, blog content, and user accounts from a relational database. Instead of hardcoded HTML, your dispensary serves live product catalogs, manages customer registrations, and stores contact inquiries — all running on affordable shared hosting.

The MVC folder structure keeps your cannabis application maintainable: product models fetch strains and accessories from MySQL with filtering and pagination, blog models power three archive and three detail views with dynamic content, and the comparison controller assembles side-by-side product data for informed purchase decisions. Secure authentication with bcrypt password hashing and PHP sessions protects user accounts, while PDO prepared statements safeguard every database interaction.

Key Features

  • PHP 8.1 + MVC Pattern — Organized controllers, models, and views for cannabis retail applications.
  • MySQL Database — Schemas for products, categories, blog posts, users, and contact submissions.
  • 16 Dynamic Views — Every page template pulls real data from the database.
  • Shop Backend — Product listing with server-side filtering across standard, left, and right sidebar views.
  • Comparison Engine — Server-side product comparison logic for strains and cannabis products.
  • Blog CMS — CRUD operations for cannabis articles with three archive and three detail layouts.
  • User Authentication — Secure login, registration, password hashing, and session management.
  • Contact Processing — Server-side form validation and database storage for store inquiries.
  • PDO Security Layer — Prepared statements preventing SQL injection in all queries.
  • Reusable Partials — Shared header, footer, sidebar, and product card view components.
  • Responsive Frontend — Bootstrap views rendering properly on all screen sizes.
  • Config Management — Centralized settings for database credentials and application paths.
  • Affordable Hosting — Runs on any shared hosting with PHP 8.1+ and MySQL.
