Assigning a Members' home page

Posted by

Overview

A members home page is the page they are redirected to after they have logged into your website. You can have the same home page for each of your membership groups, or you can have completely home pages for each membership groups. You can display the latest product offers and discounts for each membership group, the latest news articles with information relevant to that member group, downloadable files which are only available to that membership group, and much more.

There are 2 prerequisites for assigning a members home page:

  1. Have you created the membership group yet? If not, please refer to .

  2. Have you created the page and assigned it to your membership group? If not, please refer to Creating a Members Only Page.

If you have completed the above 2 tasks then we can proceed with the final step of assigning that member only page as the homepage for your membership group.
