MySQL Triggers to Disable A User Account
- by Mike D
I am trying to create a MySQL Trigger to disable someone's account if they have logged in to the site 3 times. I have tried to create this trigger using the following code, but it is not setting is_active to 0 no matter what times_logged_in is. Any help would be appreciated.
CREATE TRIGGER updateTrigger AFTER UPDATE ON users
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
UPDATE users SET is_active=0 WHERE NEW.is_code=1
AND NEW.times_logged_in>=3
AND NEW.user_id=user_id;
END;
