Login and password Hubspot CMS

angara — Mon, 04 Jun 2018 09:06:07 GMT

We are thinking of mowing from Wordpress to Hubspot CMS BUT we need to be able to control users (external customers) and rights (very simple rights Yes/no to enter a site) and give the user a password (Automatic) when signing up to our service on our website. I understand this is not possible by default with Hubspot CMS - Can anyone suggest a solution to this or a third party solution - thanks

Hi @angara,

There are third party solutions that introduce client side javascript that can do this. They introduce Javascript to the page that checks for login cookies, and redirects to a login page if they don't find any. This can work for keeping the average user off of your site unless they login, but it is not a secure way to protect your site's content since the redirect occurs after the content is served.

Hi @angara

The solution suggested by Derek works if you simply need visitors to confirm they are eligable to view your website before they do - an approach simialr to an age gate you see on lots of websites relating to alcohol and such.

However, if you actually need to password protect the content (in a way that cant be circumnaviated just by deleteing a popup in developer tools) then you need a more robust solution like HubSpot memberships. Take a look at How to password protect content in HubSpot for an overview of HubSpot's password protection options.

Hope this helps.
