How to redirect to a CMS page after signup?
Hi all,
Is there any way to do a member-specific redirect to a CMS page (not static)?
I've read the documentation on this and you can set up a custom redirect AFTER the user has been created but I want the user to sign up be able to go to their dashboard right away.
I have a Zap set up that pulls in the memberstack ID into the Webflow CMS but after a user signs up I need them to be able to redirect to a CMS page and not just a static page. So user signs up and goes to [URL].com/member/[memberstack-id]
I know Zapier needs a second to updated everything but maybe I could add a script that also delays the loading time while the CMS element gets created and then they get directed to their specific page. Does that make sense?

Hey Nicholas 👋
Great question and thank you for explaining your goals in detail. I'll do my best to answer, and I'm happy to go back and forth a bit if I don't answer your question exactly the first time.
1. Possible to redirect on sign up - No. The most simple answer here is that it is not possible. And also not recommended if you're using Zapier to create the CMS item. Zapier can take up to 15 minutes to run depending on your plan, and the signup redirect happens in milliseconds.
Follow-up question - why do you need them to redirect to their specific page as soon as they signup? Would you be willing to drop them onto a "Welcome" page which is dynamically personalized with the info you collected during signup? https://docs.memberstack.com/hc/en-us/articles/11384437115803
The most "solid" solution is to tell the member on your welcome page to check their email when their dashboard is ready (and then include a link to the page in the email).
Thanks! I ended up using the email solution for now.
Here is how the site is setup currently (Ill delete your info after). You can see how the Sign-up works and why I wanted to send someone to a dashboard: https://test-site-628fa8.webflow.io/
I need to figure out now how to have the nav bar give different menu options across the website once someone is logged in.
Happy to jump on the phone if you were asking that question for product research btw.
Great question!
Here's the full article with most/all of the Memberstack content attributes. https://docs.memberstack.com/hc/en-us/articles/7403036765339
The specific attribute you are looking for is data-ms-content="member" which is only visible to logged-in members.
