Hello!

I would like to create a webpage for my brass band. In this webpage I would like to store information about the members of the brass band, e.g. Email, telephone no., birthday, instrument etc.
The users of the site should have the possibility to maintain their own data. But I have now the problem that not all members of the brass band have internet access and/or email addresses. Therefore I can't create for each member of the brass band a drupal user. As I said, for those who have access to the internet, it should be possible to maintain the data by their own, for the others I (as admin) am willing to maintain the data.
In the site I would like to create dynamic lists like a telephone list, birthday list etc. over ALL members of the brass band (e.g. with views).

How can I solve my requirement within drupal? As far I understood, it is madatory to have an email address for drupal website users ...

Thanks for your help in advance und best regards,

Christian

This queston really has nothing to do with profiles as nodes. All you need to do is use fake emails on your domain. You can make one master working email account such as fake@example.com and then do like fake+name@example.com.

Hi Michelle,

Thanks for your help! It sems to be quite easy within Drupal 6. I used as you mentioned fake email addresses and I use also the module sharedemail which allows me to have the same fake email address for several users.

Last year I tried to solve the problem in Drupal 5 and I remember, that I spend a lot of time without success ... Now in Drupal 6 it just works!

Thanks again!

Christian
