CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi, I am new to CMSMS, so far I have found it really easy to work with and I am really happy with it until that is I needed to try and setup a page on my site for members only to get access to files. Thats where the difficulties began!

I soon realised from browsing through the modules and stuff that I needed Frontend Users and Custom Content so i can choose what content can be shown to what groups but I cant get it to work! I have installed both of the modules and I have setup my form with name, email, adddress and phone number.
I have added a couple of users so I can test it out and I have created a new page and tried adding this code to the page:
{cms_module module=FrontEndUsers} {cms_module module=CustomContent} {if $customcontent_loggedin} You are authorized to see this text {else} You are not authorized yet, you need to log in {/if}

but what happens is it displays the login box and you can login but it still says You are not authorized yet, you need to log in whether I login or not, it wont give me the message: You are authorized to see this text. I hve looked around for tutorials and found one or two bits but I have been unable to get those to work correctly either.

I only have one user group as thats all I need, I just basically need a page with content on that only members are allowed to see on not the guests

Can anyone help me please?
Thanks,
Ryan

Make sure your page is marked as 'not cachable',and that you're running the latest version of CustomContent and CMS Made Simple.

If I'm not mistaken, the code works like this:

{cms_module module=CustomContent}                         

  You are authorized to see this text 
 
  You are not authorized yet, you need to log in 


Good luck!
