Hi there,

Within my EE site, I have members that represent customers.  Within those customers, I have some member fields that relate to certain things about what they have purchased.  Example

User1
   LicenceKey: 1234
   SupportExpires: 01/02/12
User2
   LicenceKey: 5678
   SupportExpires: 04/05/12
User3
   LicenceKey: 9101
   SupportExpires: 06/07/12

I then have a very simple template that uses {exp:member:custom_profile_data} to show these fields to the user when they login.

All this works great.

I would like add a “top level” user to this system that can access the details for more than one user.  Example:

SuperUser1: 
     User1, User2
  SuperUser2:
     User1

So when SuperUser1 logs in, they can see User1 & User2’s records.

I am using MemberFields (not just normal posts) to hold this info because its being automatically updated from a CRM system using custom scripts.

Many thanks

I’d probably look at creating a special template for this that output data for “all Users”.

Then create a Super user member group, and restrict access to the template to that group.

Thanks for the response.

Thats kind of what I’m doing (I think!).

I have a template that outputs the custom member fields that is only accessible by members of a certain group.

The problem is I’m having trouble in defining any kind of hierarchy within my members.  So for example somehow SuperUser1 must only be able to “see” User1 & User2 and SuperUser2 must only be able to see User1.

I’m currently looking at the member category module as it seems to sort of fit the bill, but a bit reluctant to jump in just yet as it costs

Cheers
