  Customizing 'Authorization required' message [4916] Hi there, I have a question regarding the following message: "Authorization required Authorization is required to access the page you’re looking for. Please login and you’ll be taken to the page you requested. E-mail * Password * Remember me Forgot password I would like to customize this message with different wording...telling the user he needs to register as a member before he can log in. This message appears in my site as follows: Go to "Inicio" page as a non member user Click on the green vignete "Desarrollo de lenguage academico". I want people to register as a member before they acces the info there...and I like the message to come up, but I need to add language to it...like "Membership is required" ( Hagase miembro para acceder a este servicio). Please advise. I'm just afraid it will confuse people. Thanks in advance, Elisa

If the user is not a member, they do not currently get any info on joining, it just asks them to login which will not be possible for them.  At a minimum, this message should offer an opportunity to join for non-members. It would also be nice to be able to have a custom message.   Kacy

It should be very easy for anyone who ends up there what they have to do, now there isn't anything even letting them know really whats wrong. They may think they've ended up in an administration area. Add my vote. Shari No time? Let us make some for you! Weaving the World of Tarot into life...

  Re: Customizing 'Authorization required' message [4916] Elisa, I don't want the general public to see member information without first registering either. I made an Our Members page that says Please register with us at Join Us or sign in at the bottom of this page.    To search our Member Directory, click on the Search section of the menu which you will see after signing in.     I put the Search page in the members only section. It's the only way I could figure out how to accomplish what I wanted. There may be an easier way... like custom wording where you suggested.   Judy
