Members fieldtype is the tool that allow you to connect Members to Channel Entries. This ability allows you to store very complex content in your Channel entries. For example, you could create a Channel called "Articles" and then create a Channel Field called "Authors" that is a Members fieldtype. You could then associate one or more Members with each Article entry. This would allow you to display the author's name, bio, photo, etc. on the Article page.

The Members fieldtype helps you connect Members to Channel Entries. This lets you create powerful relationships between Members and content in your Channel entries. For example, you could create a Channel called "Articles" and a Channel Field called "Authors" that uses the Members fieldtype. You could then associate one or more Members with each Article entry. This would allow you to display the author's name, bio, photo, etc. on the Article page.
