Adding fields to profile to be completed on joining private forum and approval process

trebso
Hi

I'm about to set up a Nabble forum for our sailing club. I want to set it up so that only paid up members of the sailing club can post in the forum.

Three related issues:

One
To make it easy for the person approving new members (and removing members who haven't renewed their annual membership), I want to require members applying to join the forum to enter their (sailing club) membership number during the registration/approval process. And for that number to be visible to the Admin reviewing their request.

Two
For that number (four digits e.g. 2312) to be shown in their profile.

Ideally, I'd also like their profiles to show real names, not user names. So profile would be:
John Smith
1324

(Ideally the same info would be in the 'users and groups' list, but that's less important.)

Three
I presume Administrators approve new membership requests. Is that right? Do all Admins receive an email letting them know a request is pending?


Hope that makes sense and look forward to your help!
