    Hi

    I am currently about to take on development of a cms of sorts, and being a bit lazy and also looking for an easy solution over coding something bespoke, I see your membership system as a solution.

    What I need to do is to essentially use aMember to deal with subs and controlling of the membership area/s.

    Every single user within the site will have a completely unique membership area made up from the db that is specific to their login. What i need to know is can i achieve this easily by modding a Member?

    Could I for instance, pass say the id column from the users table and use this to then identify from which tables the pages and navigation are pulled and built, should user still be a valid member?

    Obviously i know this can be done, but i'm really wanting to know if custom variables can easily be passed on correctly logging someone in?

    Thanks and apologies for going on a bit, i kept managing to confuse myself about what it is i'm trying to do! :)

    If your CMS doesnt destroy the amember session info, you could use this to tell the system who the user is etc...
    You can also write a plugin to copy over the user info to your CMS database.
