Hi Guys…Hope you all are safe…actually i am new to this platform…please help me with this issue… I am having a site where the user signup via Default member signup form or by Google/Facebook login . So the member data like first name , last name and profile pic is saved in the Private member data collection. Now i have a custom page where i need to display the name and profile pic of some specific members , example like some one won in contest, so the contest winners. I tried to create a data collection with a reference field to the private member collection , although i understand that the private member data is read-only to site author. So kindly help me to achieve the functionality… Once again…stay safe everyone… thanks in advance…

There are two ways, easies is to link each email to a record and assign each person an id so the custom url will look something like mysite.com/usr/id that doesn’t require much coding.
The other way is calling a backend function onReady that returns the information you want, I like this one better.
Sorry…I didn’t get you completely…Can you elaborate a little much? I don’t want a custom page for each member…its kind of a dashboard with winner details.
So you already have a database with all the information and you want to match it to each user as they sign up?
No…some users already completed sign up…now their data is available in memeber\PrivateMembersData… Now i need to show the first name and profile pic in a dash board…
You can see all the fields for the Wix Members app own collection of the Members/PrivateMembersData here.

However, note that the permissions are site member author only, which means that a site member will only see their own specific data from that collection.
Another site member will not be able to see another site members data from that collection.
You can get around this if you use Wix Data Options to bypass the checks.

Carlos can you explain how you do that because no field in the private members collection will accept references.
I want to add fields to the Private members collection if possible by connecting my own collection with the addition and reference the email address
Thanks
@contactbattlevisa Were you ever able to accomplish this? I am trying to let members add reviews for product and I am seeing the same thing.
Hey everyone!
I’ve checked this URL
https://www.wix.com/corvid/reference/wix-data.html#WixDataOptions
And is no longer available.
And already tried this:
Name (name)
Description : The member’s full name. This information is concatenated from the “First Name” and “Last Name” fields.
Type : Text
Can connect to data : Yes
Can use in dynamic page URL : Yes
Read-only : Yes
And couldn’t connect it to it.
Could anyone sort this out?
This is what I’m facing:
I have a collection called Datos Perfil
This collection has several fields (the ones that be used on a dynamic URL), that are referenced to the PrivateMembers Data Collection.
This collection should be populated by:
A) Private members data
B) User input form that completes the data for building a custom member listing.
On the user input form, the PrivateMembersData fields are not inputs. Are just greyed text, so user isn’t able to edit this.
Issue 1:
On the input form, personal data isn’t displayed.
Issue 2:
Not sure how to “auto-populate” the DatosPerfil reference automatically. I mean without having me to go through each item.
Any ideas are really appreciated.
Anyone?
Thanks!!!
Has anyone ever done this? I would also like to know the answer to the riddle.
