    The current script setup redirects the user when they are not in the correct membership group to view the page when using:
    <?php
    include("../members/library/Am/Lite.php");
    Am_Lite::getInstance()->checkAccess(2);
    ?>

    I would like to echo an error message instead of redirecting the user to another page, is this possible by editing this code?
    i have tried :
    <?php
    include("../members/library/Am/Lite.php");
    ?>

    <?php if (Am_Lite::getInstance()->checkAccess(2)); ?>
    Not permitted to view

    <?php else: ?>
    <?php

    content

    ?>

    but this does not work.

    Thanks

    For anyone interested, i got it working with the following:
    <?php
    include("../../members/library/Am/Lite.php");
    $membership=Am_Lite::getInstance()->haveSubscriptions(2);
    ?>
    <?php if($membership >=1):?>
    Protected Content
    ?>
    <?php else : ?>
    Upgrade to view content
    <?php endif; ?>

    haveSubscriptions should be the number of the membership you want to check the user has
    It then checks if their number of memberships in group "2" is 1 or higher.

    Further improvement displays different messages (can be changed to different html or code) depending if user is subscribed, logged in but not subscribed, and not logged in.

    <?php
    include("../members/library/Am/Lite.php");
    $membership=Am_Lite::getInstance()->haveSubscriptions(2);;
    $isloggedin=Am_Lite::getInstance()->isLoggedIn();
    ?>
    <?php if($membership >=1):?>
    You have a valid membership

    <?php elseif($isloggedin >=1):?>
    You need to upgrade
    <?php else:?>
    please login
    <?php endif; ?>
