New members accessing the forum can register by navigating to your Forum page and clicking on Register.

They will then be prompted to add their desired username, email address and agree
for an email to be sent prompting them for a password.

If your club has requested that all new members are approved by the website admin then the new member will NOT receive an email prompting them for a password until they have been approved.

Granting approval

When a new member requests to register on the website, you will receive an email advising that you need to log in to approve access.

Once logged in go to the site Dashboard. 

And then in the menubar on the left, scroll down and click on All Users (you should see a number next to it, reflecting that there is a user pending approval).

In the Users screen you will see all pending users higlhighted in Yellow.

If you are happy to approve the new user, hover over their name and click on Approve. 

Once approved, the user will receive an email prompting them to add their password.

Should you wish to un-approve them, just hove over their name again and click Unapprove.
