Although it was beneficial to a handful of associations that administered multiple databases or for office staff that liked using the same login to access the Member Information Center, it was not as friendly to members of organizations that would receive a message indicating that their login ID was already “in use” even though it wasn’t used within their own database. The confusion outweighed the benefits. And with a new feature allowing office staff to access the Member Information Center from the backoffice using the “impersonate” feature, the need for tying a staff and member login together became less necessary.For those staff members that had this in place prior to Feb 2014, this feature still functions. Logging in at www.chamberlogin.com or http://app.memberzone.com with a login that is tied to multiple databases or to multiple accounts will display a selection window. See below.For example, a member may have previously joined together their login credentials to both the Green Valley Chamber and the North Shore Chamber. Logging in using a link on the Green Valley Chamber website will log them into the Green Valley Chamber database*. Using the link on the North Shore Chamber website, will log them into the North Shore Chamber database. If this member logs in from www.chamberlogin.com (or http://app.memberzone.com for our MemberZone customers), then they will be asked for a bit more information to determine which database they would like to access. See figure below.Tip and Best Practice: To avoid seeing this screen and get quicker access to the database, members should use the login link that is located on their organization’s website.Hint: This screen above is trying to match identifying information that is listed under Setup->Organization Information. Members only need to provide enough information to be unique among all databases. For instance, if no other organization has the same zip code in our database, then that is enough. Otherwise, more information must be filled out until it only matches one database.
