    I just had amember installed. It worked fine during trial and for first day or two. Now today when I try to log into homepage of site, I am taken directly to "protected" HTML page instead. I can't figure out what went wrong. Anyone? ANyone? ANyone? Seriously -- I am not getting any help from help desk. Thanks. Nevermind. I quit. This all stinks.

    newdesign,

    1) when you say "log into homepage of site" are you referring to logging into your aMember installation using a test account?

    2) when you are taken to a "protected HTML page" is this a content page that is a part of your membership or a "access denied" kind of page?

    Two things come to mind:

    1) Each product has a Product URL defined. if a member is only subscribed to one product they will go to that URL when the log in.

    -or-

    2) You accidentally protected a folder that should not have been protected. Browse to that folder in your FTP client and rename .htaccess to something else and see if that corrects the issue.
