Split login fail condition in 2 conditions to cover “account inactive” case

This is because your first if statement is:

PHP Code:

if ($current_user) { 


Which will return false for an inactive user, as your query is:

PHP Code:

$query = $this->db->get_where('users', ['email' => $email, 'password' => md5($password), 'active' => 1]); 


Notice, the check for "active" => 1, meaning it won't return any records for inactive users.

So your first if statement returns false, hence going to the else clause which has:

PHP Code:

$this->session->set_flashdata("signin_failure", "Incorrect email or password"); 


So you probably need to check if the user is active first, before checking if their username/password is correct.

I'd suggest splitting your "user_login" function into two distinct functions. One to check if the user is active, and one to test the user/pass combo.

Lastly, I noticed you're storing your password as md5 strings... this is a bad idea. It's not secure. Use bcrypt or similar.

It worke! Thx!
