CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hello,

I'm running a Drupal website for about 2 years and recently I started looking at CiviCRM for a way to automate our Drupal user registration process. So basically this is what I want to achieve:

- all active members of our society are entered as contacts in CiviCRM
- whenever a member wants to access the members-only part of the website, he/she has to register a Drupal account
- based on the information entered in the registration form, CiviCRM is searched for matching info.
- If found, the Drupal account is approved. If not found, an email is sent to the administrator for manual approval.

I can only find info to automatically create Drupal accounts for CiviCRM contacts, but I'd rather leave the initiative with the member.

Can anyone point me to some URLs or give some hints on how to do this?

Thanks.
