Hi all and thank you for trying to help me with my request.
I am still very new to Wix and am only starting to work on a website that will provide information to tourists in my country.
Step 1 of the request:
I want a potential customer to be able to fill in the form on a signup section, select the category that best describes their business, then proceed with the form and their details, such as opening times, address, phone number, etc… Once the new customer has entered their details and submitted them, I want this to be captured in a database. Once this has taken place, I want to be notified with a message to say that there is a new signup.
Step 2 of the request:
After being notified, I want to be able to check the details in the database to decide if I want to allow the details to be displayed on my website. If I am ok with the information to be displayed, I want the database to then create a page within my website, in the desired category and section selected, automatically with the new customers details (im a guessing it needs to be setup as a Dynamic Page?).
I want this section to almost work like a dating websites profile setup form, whereby a customer setups up their “profile” by filling out a form, it “pings” a message over to me to allow the details to be displayed and once I give them a get the green light, the person creating their profile gets a message from the wwebsite automatically to let them know their profile is active and it is visible to others…
I want to automate this process as much as possible, so that this process seems as simple as possible to a customer who wishes to create a profile of themselves and doesn’t wish to go through a hassle with a sales person over the phone and several emails going back and forth with their details, images, etc…
Not sure if I am explaining this the best way possible, but hope you understand what I am hoping to create and would appreciate the help from the community very much.
Thank you.

So basically you can just create a custom Wix Signup form or your own custom signup lightbox with your user inputs on using register function from Wix Users API which will aloow you to ad the extra signup user inputs that you are looking to use.

If you have your signup settings as manually approved, then they will not become a site member until you approve them yourself.

Who can be a member?
Choose who can be a member of your site:
Everyone: When a new member signs up, they are approved automatically. You do not need to do anything.
People I approve: When a new member signs up, you receive a notification, both by email and in your site’s dashboard, asking if you want to approve or reject them. Only those who you approve become site members.
Then you can move the user onto your own custom member profile page where you can get the user to fill out even more for their profile which includes user inputs for their public profile etc.

Note that you don’t have to keep the example from this tutorial exactly how it is laid out, you can change it to whatever you need to have on your own page and whatever user inputs you need etc.
You can either have them saved into another dataset that you show on public pages or you use Wix Data Options to suppress the checks.
