@Paul2009 thanks so much for the explanation. It does save me time, thank you. One thing I am not clear on ... could I build my own form (which includes all the additional fields I want) and use this as a member registration? I.e. do it outside of the standard JOIN via access denied page? I'm happy to pay a Squarespace consultant to do it ... if it is possible.

Site URL: https://www.lacreme.ae/ I've just found out (from Squarespace live chat) that it is NOT possible to customize the JOIN form for member areas. I want to capture additional information about users when they register to join my member area. This seems like a pretty basic and obvious functionality. Surely every business requires this. Am I missing something? Functionality I'm trying to achieve: 1 member page (yes, only 1 page!) in my site is only available to registered users (members) if a non-signed-in user tries to go there they go to an access denied page and are challenged to JOIN or SIGN IN - once done successfully they can go to the member page if a signed-in user tries to go there they get to the member page without challenge This is all working fine BUT ... the Squarespace JOIN form only asks for firstname, lastname, email, create password, re-type password. I want to ask for additional information: mobile number, date of birth, nationality, which part of the country they live in, interests (tags) ... this will allow me to send more relevant comms to them. This seems pretty straightforward to me but I just can't figure it out. I've asked Squarespace live chat and they tell me I need to use their regular member area JOIN form and then ask members to fill in another separate form! This would really suck. I love Squarespace and I just cannot believe something so simple isn't possible! Would really appreciate any ideas, examples or help please.
