I'd like to be able to escalate a user's authority based on how much information they provide on their profile.

For instance, I've created an "Author" tab that asks the already registerd user to tell me their age group and gender, and to fill out an "About Me" box. Once they've done this, I'd like to escalate them from Registered to Author.

1. Is this possible to do automatically?
2. If not, then can the Admin get an e-mail whenever someone completes filling in the information on a profile tab?

Thanks,

Tom

There is a plug in called CB Profile notifier. This should email admin or selcted person when any profile information is updated. However I have been unable to get i working streight away on my projects, its on my list of things to look into. Hope this helps.
