Create Members Only page with unique user login

I would like to create a Members Only page on our site which allows our dealers to create their own user name / password. I would need to be able to manage the database of login information in order to remove users as necessary.  Any advice on a widget or program that would work with Muse to accomplish this?

  • Dreamweaver CS3 Members Only Page Creation

    Hi, Everyone
    I am currently tryignt o create a members only page with only
    one logon for a volunteer fire company website. If anyone can offer
    an easy way of creating one I would greatly appreciate it.

    Does the hosting for this site have a control panel or
    CPanel?
    If yes- log into it and look around. Almost all hosting
    control panels have
    a way to password protect directories and create authorized
    users.

  • How can you create a customized page to change user password?

    Hello to all,
    I would like to create a customized page for a user to change their password. We are using Portal version 3.0.9 on Windows NT/2000. Currently there is a page in portal where a user can change their password.
    I tried linking to that page by copying the shortcut url and adding it as an html portlet. The problem is that we want to direct the users to a
    page of our choosing when they click on the "cancel" and "ok" buttons. I read in the forums that there is a selfreg.cmd script.
    I also read that there is some code that has been available.
    Has anyone implemented a customized user password change page? Do you know of any links that might have steps to follow or
    more informatioin?
    Thanks in advance,
    Lindsay

    Hi,
    I was able to customize the change password screen through a procedure. This is what I did:

    * And if you want a change password link at the top of your portal page, just go to EDIT on your page, then edit the banner defaults. Then in the links add the Lable and the URL. The URL would be the URL you copied from the previous step.
    Hope this helps.
    I've customized the login page too if you would like some sample code for that. Let me know.

    please help me

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name" in SharePoint list form using JavaScript.
    To set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name”,  you can use the below code:
    <script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.9.0.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function SetPickerValue(pickerid, key, dispval) {
    var xml = '<Entities Append="False" Error="" Separator=";" MaxHeight="3">';
    xml = xml + PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval);
    xml = xml + '</Entities>';
    EntityEditorCallback(xml, pickerid, true);
    function PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval) {
    return '<Entity Key="' + key + '" DisplayText="' + dispval + '" IsResolved="True" Description="' + key + '"><MultipleMatches /></Entity>';
    function GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField() {
    var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var web = context.get_web();
    this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
    context.load(this._currentUser);
    context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
    Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
    function onSuccess(sender, args) {
    SetPickerValue('ctl00_m_g_99f3303a_dffa_4436_8bfa_3511d9ffddc0_ctl00_ctl05_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField', this._currentUser.get_loginName(),
    this._currentUser.get_title());
    function onFaiure(sender, args) {
    alert(args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());

  • What is the best qay to create a simple page with three textbox fields

    Hi
    I try to create a Portal page for Password change.
    At first look, I taught that to create that basic page will be easy as one, two , three.
    Unfortunately not.
    I need to create three textbox and include pl/sql validation agains our BD.
    I usually work with a form base on procedure whose contain htp.package procedure
    to create a portal page when that form is called. (Base on the way where Portal manage his own change password page.)
    I try to get a better design of the page.
    Where I get all the information about that package ? I want to center the page.
    Oh yeah, I'm a newbie in html.
    Any ideas will be appreciate
    Thank
    Regis

    Hi,
    You could create a FORM with non base table fields. You could then validate the values on SUBMIT (say through a button) and then do whatever processing,redirection needs to be done.
    Or
    you could create a DYNAMIC PAGE with all html fields and proper alignments etc and on form submit do the relevant processing.
    Thanks,

  • About creating an AJAX page with DML procedures  using dynamic actions

    About creating an AJAX page with DML procedures in APEX using dynamic actions. Help with limitations.
    I want to share my experience, creating AJAX procedures in APEX 4.0.
    LIMITATIONS
    •     How Can I Hide UPDATE button while I press NEW button. ??
    •     How Can I Hide CREATE button while I’m UPDATING A RECORD. ??
    •     How can I avoid multiple Inserts or Updates. ??
    Here are the steps to create an AJAX Updatable Form using the sample table DEPTS. You can see the demo here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=15488:1]
    1)     Create a blank page
    2)     Add a Report Region for departments (It shows the columns deptno, dname and loc).
    3)     Add an HTML Region and create the elements to edit a Department.
    a.     P1_DEPTNO (Hidden to store PK)
    b.     P1_DNAME (Text Field)
    c.     P1_LOC (Text Field)
    4)     You also have to create a hidden element called P1_ACTION. This will help to trigger dynamic actions to perform DMLs.
    5)     Open Page Attributes and in the HTML Header Section include the following code.
    <script>
         function doSelect(pId){
              $x_Value(‘P1_DEPTNO’,pId);
              $x_Value(‘P1_ACTION’,’SELECT’);
    </script>
    6)     Modify the column DEPTNO in the report, to add column link. In the link text you can use #DEPTNO# , in target you must select ‘URL ‘ and in the URL field write javascript:doSelect(#DEPTNO#);
    7)     Create the following Buttons in the Form Region.
    CANCEL     Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’CANCEL’);
    NEW          Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’NEW’);
    SAVE          Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’UPDATE’);
    CREATE          Redirects to URL: javascript:$x_Value(‘P150_ACTION’,’CREATE’);
    8)     Create the following Dynamic Action to Select a Department
    Name:     Select Dept
    Event:     Change
    Selection Type:     Item(s)
    Item(s):     P1_ACTION
    Condition:     equal to
    Value:     SELECT
    Action:     Execute PL/SQL Code
    PL/SQL Code:     
    SELECT dname, loc
    INTO :P1_DNAME, :P1_LOC
    FROM dept
    WHERE deptno = :P1_DEPTNO;
    Page Items to Submit:     P1_DEPTNO, P1_DNAME, P1_LOC     
    Don’t include any false action and create the Dynamic Action.
    The first limitation, the value of page elements don’t do refresh so I added the following true actions to the dynamic action AFTER Execute PL/SQL Code.
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Expression
    PL/SQL Expression:     :P1_DNAME
    Page Items to submit:     (none) (leave it blank)
    Affected Elements: Item P1_DNAME
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Expression
    PL/SQL Expression:     :P1_LOC
    Page Items to submit:     (none) (leave it blank)
    Affected Elements: Item P1_LOC
    These actions allow refresh the items display value.
    9)     Create the following Dynamic Action to Update a Department
    Name:     Update Dept
    Event:     Change
    Selection Type:     Item(s)
    Item(s):     P1_ACTION
    Condition:     equal to
    Value:     CREATE
    Action:     Execute PL/SQL Code
    PL/SQL Code:     
    UPDATE dept SET
    dname = :P1_DNAME,
    loc = :P1_LOC
    WHERE deptno = :P1_DEPTNO;
    Page Items to Submit:     P1_DEPTNO, P1_DNAME, P1_LOC     
    Don’t include any false action and create the Dynamic Action.
    Include the following True Actions BEFORE the Execute PL/SQL Code true Action.
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark ‘Fire on page load’ and ‘Stop execution on error’
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Expression
    PL/SQL Expression:     :P1_DNAME
    Page Items to submit:     P1_DNAME
    Affected Elements: Item P1_DNAME
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Expression
    PL/SQL Expression:     :P1_LOC
    Page Items to submit:     P1_LOC
    Affected Elements: Item P1_LOC
    These actions allow refresh the items display value.
    Finally to refresh the Departments report, add the following true action at the end
    Action:     Refresh
    Affected Elements: Region Departments
    10)     Create the following Dynamic Action to Create a Department
    Name:     Create Dept
    Event:     Change
    Selection Type:     Item(s)
    Item(s):     P1_ACTION
    Condition:     equal to
    Value:     CREATE
    Action:     Execute PL/SQL Code
    PL/SQL Code:     
    INSERT INTO dept(deptno,dname,loc)
    VALUES (:P1_DEPTNO,:P1_DNAME,:P1_LOC);
    Page Items to Submit:     P1_DEPTNO, P1_DNAME, P1_LOC     
    Don’t include any false action and create the Dynamic Action.
    Include the following True Actions BEFORE the Execute PL/SQL Code true Action.
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Function Body
    PL/SQL Function Body:     
    DECLARE
    v_pk NUMBER;
    BEGIN
    SELECT DEPT_SEQ.nextval INTO v_pk FROM DUAL;; -- or any other existing sequence
    RETURN v_pk;
    END;
    Page Items to submit:     P1_DEPTNO
    Affected Elements: Item P1_DEPTNO
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark *‘Fire on page load’* and *‘Stop execution on error’*
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Expression
    PL/SQL Expression:     :P1_DNAME
    Page Items to submit:     P1_DNAME
    Affected Elements: Item P1_DNAME
    Action:     Set Value
    Unmark ‘Fire on page load’ and ‘Stop execution on error’
    Set Type:     PL/SQL Expression
    PL/SQL Expression:     :P1_LOC
    Page Items to submit:     P1_LOC
    Affected Elements: Item P1_LOC
    These actions allow refresh the items display value.
    Finally to refresh the Departments report, add the following true action at the end
    Action:     Refresh
    Affected Elements: Region Departments
    11)     Create the following Dynamic Action to delete a department
    Name:     Delete Dept
    Event:     Change
    Selection Type:     Item(s)
    Item(s):     P1_ACTION
    Condition:     equal to
    Value:     DELETE
    Action:     Execute PL/SQL Code
    PL/SQL Code:     
    DELETE dept
    WHERE deptno = :P1_DEPTNO;
    Page Items to Submit:     P1_DEPTNO
    Don’t include any false action and create the Dynamic Action.
    Include the following True Actions AFTER the Execute PL/SQL Code true Action.
    Action:     Refresh
    Affected Elements: Region Departments
    Action:     Clear
    Unmark ‘Fire on page load’
    Affected Elements: Items P1_DEPTNO, P1_DNAME, P1_LOC
    12)     Finally Create the following Dynamic Action for the NEW event
    Name:     New Dept
    Event:     Change
    Selection Type:     Item(s)
    Item(s):     P1_ACTION
    Condition:     equal to

    Sounds like you may have deleted something you shouldn't have. Boot to an OS X DVD or a bootable backup, and using Disk Utility, do a repair disk, and while there repair permissions. Disconnect any peripherals, and reboot. If you get the same startup behavior, do a safe boot, by holding the shift key down when booting. If that works, try a normal boot. If neither step helps, you may need to relaod your operating system.

  • Create Members Only Area

    I've never created a "members only" area of a web site
    before. I'm having trouble conceptualizing how it will fit in with
    the rest of my design. Does it work like this:
    User goes to main home page, finds members only login and
    logs into members only area.
    What does this page look like? Does it have the same
    navigation buttons as the main page, but new, additional ones to
    get from place to place in the members area?
    OR does the members area have a completely different set of
    buttons at the top, with one of them, "return to public area"?
    I can't picture the flow. Can anyone help? I'd also love tips
    on how to do it! I know our server offers some application I
    haven't tried yet.

    All you need to know at this point is what server models your

  • How to navigate to different page with different user name

    Hi,
    I have created a DB application....
    My application consist of 4 pages.......
    But if the first user logs into an application means, he needs to see only 3rd page
    If the second user logs into an application means, he needs to see only 4th page.......
    (i.e) 3rd page couldnot been accessible by the second user........
    and 4th page couldnot been accessible by the first user.......
    How to achieve this, i think i need to set some validation in the login page.....if so how to do that.....
    it is an urgency....help me friends....
    Regards,
    Harry...

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply, so i need to create a post authentication for redirecting to different page as you said....
    Since these are my two pages(in the application)
    *) issues page.
    *) analyst page.
    Suppose if the User A login to the issues page(via. login page) he needs to see only the issues page
    if the User B login to the analyst page(via. login page) he needs to see only the analyst page...
    Since User A and B have access to the application.....
    But A should login only to issues page in my application and he should not login to the analyst page...
    and B should login only to analyst page in my application and he should not login to the issues page...
    For that where i need to define the post authentication...whether in login page i need to define.....
    if so, whether i need to define sql query for restricting the users to the particular page in the post authentication...
    Regards,
    Harry...

  • WGM creates new home folders with _unknown user/group, SA can't change it

    A little background:
    In our school we've got an xserve (about 1.5 yrs old), that was having issues last year. (the OD database pretty much ate itself). in august we did a clean install of 10.5, and updated to 10.5.3 (after suffering through the AFP/OD issues in 10.5.2). Because of the corrupt database from the last server, and the fact that a large number of our accounts have migrated through 4-5 iterations of servers from 9.2 on through 10.4.11, we created all new clean accounts by hand in WGM and moved the user files to the new home folders, changed user and permissions with SA to the new accounts and propogated that info to all the files for each home folder. everything has been going fine since then.
    until this week.
    the issue was discovered when we tried to create a new staff account (we created several accounts last week with no issue). in WGM everything looked fine. it created the account, assigned it to the proper group, and sucessfully created a home folder. the problem however was when we went into SA to change the permissions. we don't need everybody seeing everyone else's files, so we change the default group and everyone permissions to something more appropriate (don't even get me started on that gripe). When you navigate to the new home folder you just created in WGM, it shows the owner as _unknown (read/write) and group _unknown (read only... I think), Everyone (read only). Server Admin refuses to change the user or group. doesn't matter whether you use the 'show users/group' dialog and drag the account, or whether you edit it manually and insert the short name or UID. when you hit save, it stubbornly reverts back to unknown/unknown for user and group. we've tried creating accounts with different templates, no template, different account names and UID's, all with the same result.
    The odd part is that nothing in the OS has changed since we first set it up and created all the users. nothing installed, nothing updated...
    We've stayed at 10.5.3 due to the disaster in one of the updates (10.5.5 I think) that many of our other local districts had with network accounts not being able to see their own library folders due to permission issues, as well as the AFP causing 100% CPU use bug reported with 10.5.5
    A second, probably related issue is that when browsing home folders in Server Admin filesharing, any files our network users create seem to end up assignedunknown/unknown for user and group (as far back as October it seems). After searching around the net most of the day I came across a lot of info about the _unknown user issues for folks upgrading from 10.4, but these are all newly created 10.5 network users (not local) logging in and working in home folders on the server. The original owners can read/write/delete these files as normal.
    Any help would be most appreciated.

    ok... I find we were shot in the foot by one of our own.
    The quick answer: DO A GET INFO ON THE VOLUME WITH THE SHAREPOINTS! if the 'ignore permissions on this volume' box is checked... UNCHECK IT!
    Explaination: not sure how the ignore permissions box got checked, but I don't think it was done directly by human hands. we use Carbon Copy Cloner Ver. 3.something (not sure which at this point) to back up both our data (daily) and server (weekly) drives to remote storage. by striking coincidence, things started saving with _unknown user and group about the same time as crash reporter shows that CCC hosed itself. My guess is that CCC temporarily ignores permissions (as shown in the status when you do a clone) and then resets them to their original state. when it crashed, it looks like they were still set to ignore, so it happily set it back to that state every time it ran after that. not sure why the account creation issue suddenly turned up after so long... In any event, it turns out that if you have sharepoints on a server volume, AND you set the OS to ignore permissions on that volume, BAD things happen (I'm not sure it should even be an option on a shared volume, but that's for the engineering folks to figure out.) .... specifically, the symptoms above. if you login as root (yeah, I know that's something you should never do) and uncheck the ignore permissions box on the volume, then log into WGM, as root (yeah, yeah, I know... even worse) and set ALL of the Directory Administrator accounts to 'do not administer this server', and no change rights for the directory, save those settings, and then set them back to 'administer this server', and FULL rights to change the open directory, save again. and then WAIT until the drives stop going nuts... after that everything works fine.

  • How do I create a new page with the existing layout of the one I've already created?

    Okay, I'm extremely new to DreamWeaver, just an FYI. I've been commisioned to develop a site for a company. There will be like 10 pages total on the site. I've created the home page, and I'm now attempting to make the second one. But I don't know how I can take the basic layout I created in the home page so I can add information for the other pages later. I tried saving as template, but I had to create editable regions and those got in the way. I even tried copying all the code from the original, but then the Spry menus won't work properly. I hope I conveyed my problem correctly. Any assistance will be more than helpful.
    Thanks.

    There are basicly two methods, firstly the template method you have already tried, and secondly the "includes" method. Some people use one or the other, some people mix the two. I use only the includes method.
    The includes method can be done in several ways. The PHP language has it's own method of doing includes. That's what I ususally use. You can also use the SHTML method. With the SHTML method, the material you wish to include is put in a normal HTML file, then in the file where the include will be put, it is done like this:
    <!--#include virtual="../includes/banner.html" -->
    . . .and the pages/files must have the shtml suffix, not html. That informs the server that yo are using server script in the file.
    I don't use Spry menus (or spry anything) so I can't suggest a reason you encountered a problem with it.
