# Euroturk Media - Project Overview

## Description
Euroturk Media is a custom PHP-based content management system (CMS) and web portal. It includes features for publishing articles, managing videos & shorts, displaying prayer times (Namaz vakitleri), and a custom administrative panel.

## Tech Stack
- **Backend:** PHP (Vanilla)
- **Database:** MySQL / MariaDB
- **Frontend:** HTML, CSS, JavaScript (Vanilla/jQuery depending on context)
- **Architecture:** Procedural/Functional PHP with a modular directory structure using includes.

## Directory Structure
- `/admin/` - The administrative dashboard and CMS management scripts.
- `/assets/` - Static frontend assets (CSS, JS, images, fonts).
- `/config/` - Configuration files (e.g., `security.php`, database connection settings).
- `/includes/` - Reusable PHP components (like header, footer, sidebar, DB connection).
- `/migrations/` - Database migration scripts for creating and updating tables.

## Key Files & Routes
- `index.php` - The main landing page/homepage.
- `article.php` - Renders individual news articles or blog posts.
- `category.php` - Displays lists of articles within specific categories.
- `arama.php` - Search results page.
- `watch.php`, `videolar.php`, `shorts-page.php` - Video and Shorts gallery and playback pages.
- `namaz-vakitleri.php`, `namaz_page.php` - Prayer times display functionalities.
- `iletisim.php` - Contact page.
- `maintenance.php` - Under construction/maintenance toggle page.
- `blog.php`, `page.php` - Standard page and blog templates.

## Security Overview
The application handles security in `/config/security.php` which includes:
- Secure Session Configuration (HttpOnly, CSRF protection via SameSite)
- Security Headers (XSS-Protection, Content-Type-Options)
- Rate limiting for login attempts
- CSRF Token generation and validation
- Input sanitization functions (`sanitizeInput`)
- File upload validation

## Coding Conventions
- **PHP:** Procedural/Functional style is heavily used, relying on includes for templating.
- **Language:** The site is targeted at a Turkish-speaking audience, thus variables, page names, and content often use Turkish terminology (e.g., `namaz-vakitleri`, `iletisim`, `arama`).
- **Includes:** Typically, pages will require/include header and footer components from the `/includes/` directory.

## Maintenance and Updates
- Database modifications should be tracked via the `/migrations/` directory.
- Security protocols must be strictly adhered to whenever expanding input fields or forms.
