Blog project for OPENCLASSROOMS, done with Vanilla PHP

This blog is made of only PHP (except Twig as Template engine and a Bootstrap theme) using MVC architecture. This is intentionnal and for a learning purpose, before starting to use PHP frameworks. This means it has a custom router (inspired by Altorouter), custom Session management, custom Authentication and registration system etc... Here are the rules that needed to be followed :

• The blog has pages for visitors, and pages for administration.
• Admin section is only for registred users that have admin privilege.
• Commenting a post is only for registred users.
• Each new comment has to be approved by and admin.
• Posts can be created, edited and deleted only by admins. He can change title, chapo, content and author of every Post.
• Users rights can be modified by a Superadmin (giving or removing admin rights).
