Log In to View one Page of Website

I attempted to search for other posts regarding this same question, but the two posts I found didn't have any answers:
Post 1

and

Post 2

I have a basic website for a tennis club. I don't sell any products, it is more of a informative website for the general public and for club members.
So, my goal for my website is to have 1 log-in username and password that can be used by 100-200 people so they can log in and find contact information for others (e.i. names, email address and phone numbers.) So after you log in, you are sent to that one page with all that info. I attempted to create the log in page, and then when you click log in, I want it to go to that one webpage that can only be seen after logging in. Right now, when you log in, it goes back to the home page with "Welcome" at the top.

Is this possible through zen cart? Any suggestions?

Read through this thread for part of what you want:

I hate to say it, but, do you actually need to use Zen Cart?
You could quickly build a site with WordPress and there are several plugins that easily redirect users after login.

**nods in agreement**

The saying "putting a bandaid on a bullet wound" seems to fit..

Although you don't want/need all of the features available, you can do this with Zen Cart.

You want:
- One Customer, One Login User/Password

- One Landing Page for this particular customer only


You need:
- To make the login an unused email with your domain/free email account

- Twitch Restrict Categories by Customer or Group

- One line of code changed - the redirect link back to YOUR desired landing page
or
- Add the landing page info to define_main_page.php


You can shut off every other sidebox, define page, ez page that you wish as normal or use the customers_cat_group to filter them all for this one customer.

Sure you can use Zen Cart and do this.. but WHY?? It's a ONE PAGE website..WordPress takes 5 minutes to install takes a LOT less effort to configure for a one page website, and is a solution that makes sense for an informational website (which is what the OP says he is attempting to make) versus making what is primarily an e-commerce solution fit..

True, and if the OP's site will always be a one-page informational site, I'd agree. I have made several informational sites which weren't selling anything at first, but which later ended up selling memberships, hats, bumper stickers, etc., and we were glad we already had the shopping cart stuff built in.

Because eventually, members just might want more.

And...

Sfklaas asked the Zen Cart forum, not the Word Press forum.

And...

Zen Cart can.

1. WordPress
2. A login redirect plugin
3. Woocommerce (*if* wanted/*if* selling is one day required)
4. Done.

Done, and $800 poorer if you actually want to sell something using USPS, UPS, Table Rate Shipping, Attributes, CSV Import, Group Pricing and Follow-Up Emails, all included in Zencart or by using free mods contributed by the community.
