Why doing this dangerous and complicating thing with 6 days? A user should get access only after confirmation...

As Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov said its dangerous.

If you have to implement that then My advice will be to store first log in date in Log in table or some other table and each time check whether the user put his confirmation code or not if not then check date diff between first log in date and current date if > 6 then put your message.

Once user put his confirmation code set first log in date to null, and if first log in date is null then allow user with out any checking.

As I understand, After registering to your website,a user must have to confirm his email id with in 6 days and after 6 days (even user is confirming his email id), user will not be able to login.

If I am correct than what you have to do is, you have to check 6 days with the registeration date and maintain a flag like (isVerified) in your database table to which you will update the same when user confirmed his email id.

Thanks
