Welcome pages for different member levels?

How can I have a different welcome page for different membership levels instead of all members going to the same welcome page?

You can probably have a single page, but with content displayed with the conditionals, so you could have something like

If member at level4, display Content X
if member at level3, display Content Y
if member at level2, display Content Z
if member at level1, display Content W
if member at level0, display Content V

I use that for this page: http://scrapbookcampus.com/forums/
If you are not logged in, you see a message saying if you are registered member, you can only access when logged in.
If you are logged in and you are not a registered member at level1, you see a message explaining that the forum is restricted to paid members, and it has a link to the Membership Option Page
If you are logged in and you are a paid member, then you see the forum. Hope it makes sense. So you dont have to have different pages for each level.

Thank you, I did see a video on this last night. Just have to wrap my head around coding, I am more of a point and click person :)

Yeah, those are the two approaches for it. Thanks guys for sharing them. :)

I personally prefer the conditionals in a single page, but multiple pages with redirection works too.
