Hi,
I noticed that you're checking for 3 different fields (fellow, certified, associate). What type of fields are these?
Is there one "user type" field that you can use to distinguish users?
Thanks,

Re: [Jason] Membership Plugin Question

Right now I have them as checkboxes in the user account form. Should I change that to a drop down? How should I set this up? In total, there are technically 5 different user types:
fellow, certified, associate, classroom educator and subscriber. (Clients always add more at the last minute!) There will be 5 different landing pages. There is no default page for a generic user, since a user has to be one of those types. Does that make sense? How should I set this up?

Hi Meg,
No problem. The issue here was that checkboxes will always have a value of either 1 or 0, so you can change your if statement to look like this:
It's important to note that if more than checkbox is checked, they'll be redirected to the last one found in the list.
Hope this helps

if ($CURRENT_USER['fellow']) {
$url = "/member/fellows.php";
}
elseif ($CURRENT_USER['certified']) {
$url = "/member/certified.php";
}
elseif ($CURRENT_USER['associate']) {
$url = "/member/associate.php";
}
else {
$url = "/member/subscriber.php";
}It's important to note that if more than checkbox is checked, they'll be redirected to the last one found in the list.
Hope this helps
