Hi, Im kinda new to memberstack and have connected it to my webflow site. I have setup two diffrent free plans, one education and one Admin. I want the ones with Admin to be able to add new user to education and give them diffrent tags (groups) but all in a dashboard like interface on my webflow site. is this possible and if so how?

Hey Adam olin,
If you don't want to add them as admins in Memberstack dashboard and instead want to create a dashboard like interface, you can custom build it as per your requirements.
For example you could have a form on the webflow site which takes the student's email, plan to be assigned etc. as details and this form can be connected to an automation workflow via Make / Zapier which will create a new member in Memberstack and assign them the free plans accordingly.
Then those students can possibly login via Passwordless method and then have an option to set password further down the line if they want etc.
So yes, this should be possible, you might need to explore and customize things a bit based on the design requirements as well.
Hope this gives you some idea.
Thanks for the respons, this helped and I have now manage to make it so those with admin free plan can add members from the site and they get education plan automaticlly. The problem now is that I have this table on the admin site that display the data table I have setup in memberstack but I cant get the automation that all members that get the education plan to get added to the table. and tips for that part?
Welcome Adam olin 😇
You can setup a custom script on the page where the admin adds member and the script can add a new record to the data table in Memberstack accordingly. You can take inspiration from this memberscript and customize it for your use-case and then push the data to the webhook that goes on to add the member in Memberstack and assign them the relevant plan etc.
Hope this helps.
Hi again, I dont really get it to work. is it possible to insted of displaying the data table display the pepole with a surtain plan. so for me its everyone with education plan assiged to them
Hey Adam olin,
While Memberstack dashboard has all the data of members and plans they are assigned, when it comes to showing it on the front-end in Webflow, it becomes tricky as one logged in user does not have access to other users' personal data by default.
So, the workaround becomes to store the relevant information in a database like Data Tables / Webflow CMS (but it might have limitations when the business scales to huge scale of members). So storing and displaying via Data Tables should work for your use-case as you have control over what information is shared with the admin user (since you don't want them to have full access to Memberstack dashboard) and it would be easier to maintain from your end as well.
Are you facing any blockers in implementing this? Feel free to share the sandbox link and explain a bit more about the blocker if any, so that I can probably help in troubleshooting.
the admin page it hidden behind plan based block now. only those that have a plan called admin can see it, Not sure if its possible to view in sandbox mode or not
Okay can you explain what blocker you are facing currently?
when I submit a new user in any of the forms im testing it dosnt get added to the data table I have set up in memberstack, the first unstyled table is also connected to a make automation where the data enterd makes a new education member in memberstack witch works fine. The secoond one that is a code block is something memberstack AI made that dosnt work at all. And the last one that looks like the one like in the video you sent earlier is just a clone of that one where I change the table name and the field to match the ones on my table
Adam olin, does the make automation listen to webflow form submissions and goes ahead with the member creation and plan assignment? i.e. is the first module in that automation a Webflow module?
Yes it looks like this, I do get some error every now and then and might swap ti zapier, I have used it alot more before.
Hey Adam olin,
You can probably create a custom webhook in Make / Zapier (instead of using the Webflow form submission module) and link it to the form in Webflow, via the form settings (as highlighted in the screenshot below). After clicking custom action, you can paste the webhook URL from Make / Zapier to the Action field and save it.
I have modified the memberscript I shared earlier to specifically work for your use-case as follows:
So you can replace the custom code in 'Before </body> tag' section in the Admin page with the above script.
This will work with the 'Save an item with properties (Group)' form that came with the memberscript cloneable I shared.
After ensuring the form's 'Send To' is linked to a custom action (i.e. your webhook) and publishing the site with the modified script, the data submitted by the admin should be pushed to the relevant data table as well as the automation workflow via which you will create the member and assign them plan etc.
I have personally tested this out to see if it works and it does on my end.
You can test it out on your end to see if it works for your project.
Hope this helps
Hey Adam olin,
Make sure while creating a webhook in Make scenario, you leave the highlighted part in the screenshot as it is and only set the webhook's name and save it.
Then test the site out and ideally it should work.
Hope this helps
I got it working now! thanks for the help 😄
