Maybe this isn't the correct place to ask, but I asked this question on Joomla forums and did not get any answers. If someone can help me or at least point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate.
My question is: In a Joomla 2.5 website, I want to create two different kinds of forms for registering users. Maybe "registering" isn't the correct term. I want to create something like a very simple database which will hold records for two kinds of users: - one which will be interested in working in projects, so in this case the form will have more fields and specific details to fill - one which will be interested only in receiving newsletters from the site, and in this case only basic contact information will be required.
I did some research and found an extension named AcyMailing which can handle the newsletters for example, but I need to have all my potential users registered as Joomla users. I would like to avoid that if possible. If not, how can I differentiate the two kinds of users on registration, so the visitor can choose which option he wants and in this case, add more information to the registering process, if possible.
I'm not very experienced with Joomla, but since the site in question is already implemented using it, I don't have much choice.
Thanks in advance!
