my site is simple. there is no charge for memberships so I'd like to completely remove the payment function. I'd like members to sign up, then after I approve the account, they can log in and when they click "login" it will take them DIRECTLY to my /members/index.html how can I do this?
There is a "free" payment plugin (setup/configuration->plugins) that will allow for this. If you would like to manually approve accounts, you will need to select the "Manually Approve New Members" option in the advanced setion of setup/configuration)
