With PHP, I want to send a link into my clients' email so they can have access to a page on my website. This page will not be accessed by other users. So I plan to include some session information in the mail function.
I don't know how to go about it. Please kindly assist.
You can't send session info through to the email, but I would recommend creating a special token that is stored in your database. You can generate the link in the email to include that special token, then validate against it to ensure they are who they say they are.

Php Am building a e-commerce website so I want to create a temporary session for each and every user who visits my website and then store the information in database? (Note: without him creating an account)
You can use session_start function to create session in PHP, then you can store information about visitor, this is sample PHP code using session
<?php
session_start();
// set user name
$_SESSION['user_name] = $_POST['user_name']

After hours of trial and error, using WAMP i made a login system that mails me locally ( password recovery etc). I want to make pages that only the user has information tailored to the user, think of it as a profile page Facebook or Twitter, the news updates.
You can use sessions. In php you can type session_start(), then you can store some information about the user. So if the user don't have a session he can't access the page. Search about session_start(). You will find many examples about it.

I'm creating a website that requires user to sign up in order to get an account.I was just wondering, what type of api/code/etc do I need to use to send a verification code to directly to their phones.Once they receive the message they should be able to send like a text to that number (ex: send yes to confirm to the number #987) and the account automatically gets confirm from the text message.
Here you've got a list of SMS APIs: http://blog.mashape.com/list-of-50-sms-apis/. It's from 2013 though, some of them might have changed. You do have free APIs like http://textbelt.com/ but it depends on where do you want to send those SMSem, different providers in different countries have different gateways. I think it's impossible to answer you in 1 sentence.

Can anyone tell me how to Dynamically generate a new php file? Like generate it and then set it's code. Say that there was a user who created an account. When he created that account I would like it to generate his profile page.
Thanks!
You can do this using file_put_contents, but it's bad practice. It's much easier/better to just have one PHP file, profile.php for example, which takes a GET parameter for the user ID, then dynamically displays the correct information based on the user ID.

I have been making a website for a client and he has requested two things. The first is to send an email when a job is assigned to a users accounts and the second is to enable a user to recover a lost password for a the user via an automated email.
