    Custom intro text on the 'become a member' form page

    It would be nice if you could control a free-text box above the form on the 'become a member' page, so you could explain why the person should fill out the form. People are just as likely to enter a site and land right on the sign-up page (via a Google search, for instance) as they are to get there via a home page. With the latter scenario, they probably know what the form is for. With the former, they'll have no idea why they should fill the form out. And really, for either instance, you should be able to explain the benefits so you can drive the customer to take action.

     And... 'organization' shouldn't be required on that form. Firstname/lastname/email is adequate....

    Yes, this a frequent request and we have just finished designing ad prototyping a very neat way to do this and more. It is now in our development stack so expect it within the next few releases.

    Re organization - you can change it yourself, go into Customize fields and you can add/delete/rename fields and change mandatory flag etc.

    There it is -- I was able to make 'organization' optional. Thank you!
