This is covered, along with LOTS of other stuff at phpBB's web home.. Also, if you want extra information, none of which I can vouch for, check out phpbbhacks.com Chuck

I guess it could be any of the those, but let me "talk it out" a little bit. How we do things now: Memberships, both new and renewal, go to come to the treasurer who takes the money and forwards the information to the membership secretary who keeps the "official" list. My vision: (it's brand new and subject to change...) 1.) Receive memberships on paper as now, but the "official" list is actually a database that is web accessible by the treasurer, membership secretary, and maybe others. 2.) Receive memberships online. Again, they are added to the "official" list. 3.) Use the membership list to send newsletters, renewal notices, etc. 4.) (really visionary) Our facilities could have "POS" terminals to verify membership and services that members have access to. An example would be a gym membership, where they check at the counter to see what level you have rights to. I imagine that there is more we could do once implemented. Thanks,

I am such a rookie... As I learn site development, my head is spinning! I am using http://www.fentonlakes.com as my useful learning project. We are a sportsmens club, and one of the things that might be cool would be to do membership management on the web. Any thoughts of where to look into that? Also, while I am at it, we'd like to start accepting credit cards both at POS and online. Do I need to look into two services for that, i.e., POS and a merchant account? Thanks in advance!
