Linking other collections to password protected areas / member area

I am really struggling to get this working and have tried a number fo ways but can’t seem to figure out how to correctly link a member area to another collection. I am trying to do this using a non-dynamic page and filters that say that logon e-mail has to equal email in the other collection but it doesn’t work. I have tried using Wix “Member Area” and without… at one point Wix made a collection for members but that has disappeared and I can’t get it back. Any help would be appreciated. The end result that I want is a page where members can update their own public profiles (the other collection).

You can not do it unless you create dynamic pages.

Thanks @givemeawhisky… I have tried that tutorial several times and I can’t get it going… I have also tried using the WIX member area feature. I have been playing around with this, but still having difficulty relating the login information with other collections. What I need is for records in other collections with the same e-mail address as currentUser to show up… the only way I can see to do this through the “PrivateMembersData” collection that was generated by Wix somewhere along the way… however, that collection does not align with the logon information. If anyone can provide some advice on a code that would help me to use currentUser e-mail to connect to other collections’ “e-mail” field, that would be great.
