Php Folks,

You will notice that, I have a question on my comments where I show confusion on how to proceed forward. I ask which 1 of the following 2 I should use which will suit the context of my code well.
I commented-out the one that I personally thought did not fit into my codes' context. But, I need your professional opinion.

//$result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt); //Which line to use ? This line or the next ?

$result = mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $db_id, $db_username, $db_password, $db_email, $db_account_activation_status); // Which line to use ? This line or the one above ?


It is a Log In Page script where the users are given a choice to either login to their accounts by typing their "username" or "email".

Code:
<?php
 
/*
ERROR HANDLING
*/
declare(strict_types=1);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
ini_set('display_startup_errors', '1');
error_reporting(E_ALL);
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);
 
include 'config.php';
 
// check if user is already logged in
if (is_logged() === true) 
{
	//Redirect user to homepage page after 5 seconds.
	header("refresh:2;url=home.php");
	exit; //
}


if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")
{ 
	if (isset($_POST["login_username_or_email"]) && isset($_POST["login_password"]))
	{
		$username_or_email = trim($_POST["login_username_or_email"]); //
		$password = $_POST["login_password"];		
         
		//Select Username or Email to check against Mysql DB if they are already registered or not.
		$stmt = mysqli_stmt_init($conn);
		
        if(strpos("$username_or_email", "@"))
		{
			$email = $username_or_email;
			$username = "";
			
			$query = "SELECT ids, usernames, passwords, emails, accounts_activations_statuses FROM users WHERE emails = ?";
			$stmt = mysqli_prepare($conn, $query);			
			mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $email);
			mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
		    //$result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt); //Which line to use ? This line or the next ?
			$result = mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $db_id, $db_username, $db_password, $db_email, $db_account_activation_status); // Which line to use ? This line or the one above ?
		}
		else
		{
			$username = $username_or_email;
			$email = "";
			$query = "SELECT ids, usernames, passwords, emails, accounts_activations_statuses FROM users WHERE usernames = ?";
			$stmt = mysqli_prepare($conn, $query);
			mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $username);
			mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
			//$result = mysqli_stmt_get_result($stmt); //Which line to use ? This line or the next ?
			$result = mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $db_id, $db_username, $db_password, $db_email, $db_account_activation_status); // Which line to use ? This line or the one above ?
		}       	
		
		$row = mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt); //Which line to use ? This line or 2 of the next 2 ?
		mysqli_stmt_close($stmt);		
		printf("%s (%s)\n",$row["usernames"],$row["passwords"]);
		
		if ($result == false)
		{
			echo "No result!";// For debugging purpose!
			exit();
		}
		elseif ($row['accounts_activations_statuses'] == '0')
		{
			{
				echo "You have not activated your account yet! Check your email for instructions on how to activate it. 
				Check your spam folder if you don't find an email from us.";
				exit();
			}
		}
		else
		{
		
			if (password_verify($password, $db_password))		
			{
				echo "IF triggered for password_verify! password_verify ok"; // For debugging purpose!
			
			$_SESSION["user"] = $username;
			header("location:home.php?user=$username");				
		}
		else
		{
			echo "Incorrect User Credentials !';<br>";
			exit();
		}
	}
}
