Filtering by memberstack ID

Two approaches I use for this;

USERS COLLECTION

  • Have a separate Users collection with the MS ID.
  • Ref your user data to that Users collection
  • Use the User-specific collection page as the primary page for that user.
  • Use Webflow native filtering to filter items to that user via the ref field
  • Custom code to restrict Bob to Bob’s page, and auto-redirect him there.

FS FILTER, FS LOAD

  • Build a view of all user data using Finsweet Filter and FS Load
  • Use the MS ID as the filter text
  • Hide the filter
  • Set it programmatically when the user enters the page
  • Configure FS filter to show no results until a filter is set

Just to point out the obvious- neither approach has any data security at all to speak of, but the Webflow CMS isn’t designed for user-specific data storage.

If you needed it, you might be able to design a reasonable level of security using a reverse proxy to force-filter the data before it’s delivered to the browser.
