Exclusive Member Database Creation

Hi All - Happy Saturday! Hope you’re all well.

I’m been referred to this forum by Wix themselves and they say there might be a few crafty experts on here to assist me. So if you’re one, please get in touch.

I’m looking to set up an exclusive members database using Corvid and through this allow delegates (from our recent conference) access to the content that speakers presented.

Can anyone assist me with this?

Cheers
Sean

When you say what speakers presented? Do you mean something that other members have submitted to your site?

Plus, you don’t really need the use of code to give your members different roles within the members.

If you have members dataset on your website, perhaps something similar to what is done on this tutorial here. https://support.wix.com/en/article/corvid-tutorial-building-your-own-members-area

Then you already have your members dataset all setup and you can then give some members different roles within the members group and then these other members with the different roles can then access other pages similar to members only pages, where they only will be able to view things that have been submitted etc.

You can also do it through code obviously, have a read of the Wix Users API here and the getRoles function. https://www.wix.com/corvid/reference/wix-users.User.html#getRoles

So basically, you can check the members roles when they login and then direct them to their own homepage for example for that role that only they have access to.

Finally, note that the members role will have to be added manually as you can’t assign it through code as Wix Users only sees three types of user for the website.

There are three types of users:

  • Visitor - A user who is not logged into your site.

  • Member - A user who is logged into your site.

  • Admin - The owner of the site.
