While it depends on your the exact needs and the size of your project, you should probably consider utilizing wordpress and a variety of wordpress plugins to achieve your desired result. Checkout the wordpress courses on treehouse - that will help you design a custom theme for your project and the plugin tutorials will help at least understand how plugins function to the point where you should be able to modify existing membership plugins such as Paid Members Pro, itheme-exchange (with add-ons) or others to suit your needs. Thememylogin will give you the files and input fields you need and you can add additional fields using custom post types (again in the wordpress tutorials on treehouse). I would also suggest working through the PHP courses as wordpress is built using PHP. A firm knowledge of PHP won't be necessary if you end up working with the "out-of-the-box" options built within the membership plugins, but if you want to customize anything, you will at least need to be able to read the code and understand how it functions within the plugin (so you know what to change). Good Luck.
