    I just got done watching the screen cast for this by “train-ee” but one thing he left out was how clients log in.  do I give them the address to my system folder to log in how I do it?

    Surely it would be “their” system folder, no? That said, there are a couple of options: You can mask the system folder, or simply use the member module to create a login form, like you see on this site and, in fact, in the default template.

    Good point Michael - and keep in mind that you can either contact me directly for questions around Train-ee materials, or use the forums on Train-ee itself.  I don’t want to task the EE folks with support around stuff I’ve created…;)

    My normal approach is, once log-ins are created, is to just send them the same log-in link to the control panel that I use as a SuperAdmin.

    I also typically create a generic SuperAdmin login and send the details on that to them as well - with the instructions to only use it if something should happen to me.  I don’t want them to be locked out of their own site should I get hit by a bus… :gulp:
