re: For Forms, I think people will be able to go to our web site and add themselves to the directory?
If you are referring to the Form extension, that is correct.
re: Is there a way for them to automatically be approved, or do they have to go into a “queue” for approval?
Sorry, no, the submissions must be approved manually.
re: Also, for Search, is there a way to make a pull-down list to use as a search? I would like to have a list of Countries, and the visitor to pull down a list and do a search for all the members in that Country.
The only built in way of doing this would be to add the countries as categories than any of the premium templates can be use to allow the use to filter the results by category/(country).
re: And for List, does this show a limited number of members with pagination?
The free template which comes with Connections does not offer pagination. You would need one of the premium templates.
Hope that helps!
