Where can I go on the web to get answers about building websites, particularly e-commerce?

Question

I want to ask how I can make a "members only area" which will display the content to people who have paid memberships and I want to figure out how to make it impossible for them to get in once the membership expires.

I am not getting good answers from Yahoo answers, on this particular question.

Answer 1

You didn't say what type of code you want to use. This will have to be an active code with a database backend for membership storage, expiration date, passwords, etc. So you will have to use something like php,mysql to do this.

Personnally rather than reinvent the wheel..
try http://www.vibralogix.com/sitelokpw/
works fine is easy to integrate and manages members just like you want.
or http://sourceworkshop.com/advanced_scripts/members_manager_script.html
or
http://www.americanfinancing.net/advanced-mysql-members-script.cfm if you have the advanced skills to implement it.


There are tons of similar scripts out there. Just search for
php membership management or asp membership management etc.
