So this may be a bit confusing for me to word, but basically, I am using Wix members to have people log into my site, but I also want to add some new data to the privateMembersData set. Of course, this can’t be done. So I thought about having another dataset called “Members Info” and having all extra info in there. The only problem is that I have no idea how to link the privateMembersData table to the Members Info table. So if someone makes an account it would also make a row in the Members Info dataset with the same email linking them together. Then after that, I have no idea how I would say "Ok you the member are using this email, when changing a value in “Members Info” dataset look for the same email and adjust those values not create a new one each time.
Thanks, everyone for the help. Hopefully, I explained this well.
Something like this perhaps?

You can query the Wix Members app collection as shown here.

However, note that the collection is site member author only, so that only the specific site member can see their own data from it.
You can get around this by using Wix Data Options.

So going through that first link it looks like it does not work with Wix Members data. Is there no way to have Wix Members and then create a dynamic page that connects to another dataset of info for that Wix Member?
Alright so update on this you can use the Wix Members and create a dynamic page with other additional member info to be updated and read. First, follow the first link recommended by GOS. The only problem you will have is that the “Update” button will not go to the update dynamic page. This can be solved by doing the onClick event with the Update button with the code below.
export function updateButton_click(event) {
wixLocation.to(`/members/update/${wixUsers.currentUser.id}`);
}
If anyone has any other questions or runs into this same issue ask away.
@codyccaro Hi! this is exactly what I had in mind, but I cannot understand what to do to the First link that you were referring. Would you be so kind to tell me the steps that you did to make yours work? Thank you and you’ll be saving my life by doing this! Thank you again! God bless!
