    Sponsors & Advertisings vs Members

    We want to be able to create an account for sponsors and advertisers to setup that have different view rules and registration forms than "members".  We'd love to be able to track sponsor renewal and allow advertisers to have an account to sign into for repeat customers but obviously consider them quite differently than our members and don't want them to have the same access rights.

    You can already do those things . . .

    Set up a membership level "sponsors"
    Set up a separate application/registration form
    Set up separate renewal guidelines/notices
    Do not give them access to members areas


    We have these things set up and so far working well -

    The thing I'm noticing is that we have members that would also like to become a sponsor and be able to place an "ad" on the sponsor list.  Software does not currently let them use the same email address to do both.  They can only be one or the other.

    We have legitimate people that are members of the group and also have businesses that sell to the group - would be nice if they could use one email to access all accounts.

    Creating a separate 'membership' level seems like the best way to handle this.

    (gypse - thanks for pitching in)
