I am using
Plone 2.5.2,
CMF-1.6.4,
Zope (Zope 2.9.7-final, python 2.4.4, linux2),
Five 1.3.8,
Python 2.4.4 (#2, Aug 16 2007, 02:03:40) [GCC 4.1.3 20070812
(prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-15)],
PIL
I need to change how new members join the site as follows:
1. Add 2 fields to the join_form - 1 string and 1 selection box
2. Hold the sending of the password until a manager (or some other
exalted role) looks at the data in the join form and approves it.
3. Once the member is approved, send the email with the password.
I have been reading some tutorials on the plone site ("How do I add my
own member properties?", Membrane, Remember, and others) and I am a
little confused.
Everything I need to change seems to be straight forward in a non-plone
3 way (I am just getting the hang of Install.py, and the world took a
hard turn to the left!), except for #2 above. How can I accomplish #2
above without using Remember (still experimental) or Membrane? I have
nothing against them, but there appears to be YALC (yet another learning
curve) for Generic Setup, these products, and I don't like using an
experimental product in a production site.
Any suggestions or tutorials for accomplishing #2? I guess one possible
answer is to stop whining and brew a big pot of strong coffee...;-)
Thanks!
Mark
