    Creating user accounts and forum membership

    Hello everyone,

     

    I have bene building Umbraco sites for alittle while now. I'm quite happy with my understanding of setting up Umbraco on websites for the purpose of content management.

    I now need advice on where to look in order to create membership and logon functionality on a website that has Umbraco installed.

    Things that I need to progress onto are:

    - Membership + Logon (that isnt the Umbraco CMS logon- as this will be the admin so to speak).

    - Forum functionality.

     

    Any input ont hese subjects wouyld be greatly appreciated.

     

    Kind regards,

     

    James.

    Hi James,

    Dialogue is probably a nice package to install if you want membership and forum style templates. Its relatively new but looks pretty awesome.

    Thanks, Dan.

    Hi James.

    If you are using Umbraco 7, there are a pre-code snippet for make a login form. Or if you have access to the Umbraco TV I think this chapter http://www.umbraco.tv/videos/umbraco-v7/content-editor/administrative-content/members/ and this video http://www.umbraco.tv/videos/umbraco-v7/content-editor/administrative-content/members/role-based-protection/ will guide you on have to setup a protected area on your website, that requries login.

    Or see this documentation: http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbraco-client/context-menus/public-access it´s a little bit old.

    For the forum I think that you could use the nForum http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/nforum I must say that I have tried my self. Here are a topic where they are talking about which forum that can be used in Umbraco 7, maybe it can give you some ideas. http://our.umbraco.org/forum/getting-started/installing-umbraco/46516-What-forum-package-for-Umbraco-7

    Hope this helps,

    /Dennis

    Thanks Dennis and Dan. Very much appreciate the responses.

     

    Going to get stuck in and look at both sets of information.

     

    Kind regards,
