CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I could not find any reference to how to create customized web pages for self-service membership sign-up and renewal.
All stuff (explanations, ideas, links, references) will be greatly appreciated.

In general, you create a contribution page (CiviContribute) and add a CiviMember block.

Docs are here: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Documentation+Home

1) Create a profile. The profile is a collection of fields associated with a contact type. It allows you to *only* display fields (built-in or custom) that you want displayed. In the list of profiles, note the id for the profile you've created.

2) Create a CiviCRM menu item. In Joomla 1.0.13, click apply so that the associated parameters appear; in Joomla 1.5 you simply select CiviCRM from the list and the next page will give you the parameters. Under "Choose CiviCRM task" drop-down, select one of the options. Enter the profile id in the box below.

Options:

Profile Search and Listing: Gives you a FORM based on the profile fields/settings (you can determine in your profile which fields are searchable, and which are not).

Profile Create: Gives you a FORM with blank fields for the user to enter data.

Profile Edit: Gives you a FORM with existing user data where available, allowing people to edit their data.

Profile View: Gives a simple page with the user's data listed.


The profile tool gives you a lot of control over what is searchable, viewable only (not editable), viewable in the contact list (after searching), viewable in the detail view, etc.

Thanks for help Brian. Yes, it was Capthca feature.
Unfortunately I’ve got another error:    
“Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.
This profile is not configured for the requested action.”
I’ve searched the forum but couldn’t find anything at all.

Also make sure you have put the correct profile ID number in the menu item. You need to choose what CiviCRM profile view you want (view/edit/create) and also input the specific profile id.

Sorry Dave
Where is the access control box that you have named??
Are we talking about Joomla or CiviCRM?
I’ve logged in to Joomla as admin...

Here is a solution.
