*** SOLVED *** Login tool - question about users and private pages

Post by Mary »

Hi everyone

I'm building a site where each user is redirected to a private page when they log in, but I'd like more members on that site to be able to search and see personal contact information, etc.. on certain users' pages depending on each user's role and only when they're logged in of course. Sure i can develop a page where everybody can search user profiles based on keywords but that would be an alternative only if i can't implement the first idea.

What's the best way to do this in WWB?

There is no standard option for this so this requires a custom script.

Hi Pablo

when i insert the Protect page object inside a page theres a field called "Allow Users" on the properties of that object, what does that do? does that allow other users to see the content of that page when they're logged in? and what about the user roles, does that also take effect?
