Newbie advice from a newbie

[eluser]dauber[/eluser]
So...I tried the CodeIgniter tutorial here; didn't work. There's a thread from a year ago discussing some workarounds, still not working very well with me.

Other tutorials online are loaded with typos and are not up to date with the current version.

BUT...the user guide is fantastic. Seriously, folks, follow THAT, not the tutorials. It's incredibly clear.

Probably, the tutorial is not update yet with the latest version of CI, especially from 1.7.x to 2.x version, there are some different syntax, such as "Controller" in 1.7.x version, change to "CI_Controller" in Controller extends.

Also Models extend CI_Model now.

PHP Constructor has changed:

Code:

public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
}
