I have a requirement where I need some additional fields associated with a web user:
> 1. Credit Card info
> 2. Billing info for monthly subscription
> 3. login to restrict subscription directories

yes

Either you need a login form or you change the login method to basic auth and the user gets a login request from the browser.

This i don't know - the normal way is to change the permissions of the folders that belong to your protected area so that these files will not be readable by guest users but only by the user groups that you want.


I have not done this yet so I do not have the specific config setting at hand where you control the login behavior for files that a guest user cannot read (the settings which login method should be used and where in the VFS your login form is are in one of the XML configuration files of the opencms Web application)
