Membergroup On Registration

[Fatherguido]

For some reason the selection box is not showing up during registration (for me). I use a custom theme but it pulls the register.template.php file from default. I tried the default theme and still no selection box.

I can see all of the other information in the registration section but no selection box upon registration. I am attaching my reg.temp - if you would be so kind as to look at it. Thanks

Are any groups selected to be allowed for members to join in Admin / Settings / Groups that members can register to upon registration?

The template you attached appears to have the needed edits in it.

I hate to be dense here and I know a "Doh!" moment is approaching but where would I find this Admin/Settings/Groups? Are you in the membergroup area? I just don't see it. sorry

Oops sorry, I meant to say Admin / Registration / Settings.

I can see that there are membergroups that "can" be selected. Is there supposed to be a "toggle-switch" to activate them? There is none.

It won't let you click on them in the selection box? Holding down the Ctrl key while selecting them should allow you to select more than one.

You are dead on - sorry, I didn't get the "highlighting them selects them thing" so sorry - it now works - THANK YOU!

Just curious if you had any time to work on that multiple group selection I had asked about?  My forum is adding members very slowly, so I am not in dire need - I was just curious

Probably something simple, but no groups at all show up in the choice list in the setting area. It says "Groups that members can register to upon registration (?):" and gives me an empty box. Any suggestions?

[shumilica]

I want users to be able to select the groups I decide they can select (the same in the registration field) from profile.
Will this feature will ever be available?
Can't I just copy the code from register.php and register.template.php to profile.php and profile.template.php? :-o

That's odd. Do you have groups that don't have any admin permissions? I assume you do. Any errors in Admin / Forum Error Log?

@shumilica, I do want to write a mod that allows this at some point. I am afraid it would probably require some more work than just copying code from the Membergroup On Registration mod.

I'm sorry, my fault actually. It seems that I'm having problems with the package manager installing packages correctly since the move to a new server. The mod seemed to be installed correctly because of the manual edits I did to the theme... Going to fix the problem and try again! I'll let you know if I have any issues this time. Thanks!

I have a request. How about after selecting the group, the admin has to approve it. This way member dont group-hop.

[shumilica]

Ok. I will just... wait.
I want this so much because I run a faculty forum and I want to be able to send custom news mail to specific years and groups. I made custom fields so that when someone posts we know what year and in what class. Do you think that any other mod can do this? :-o
Thanks in advance for the mod you will make

Hello, I would really love to use this mod, but when I try to install it it says its not compatible with my version of forum...

I have clean installation 1.1.4, only mod I use is Redirection Boards, but I don't think it have somwthing to do with it...

Do you plan some update soon? thanks

[codenaught]

That's odd. My mod does not restrict installing for only certain versions of SMF like other mods do. So it should install for any version of SMF.

I assume you are using the "Group on Registration-1.1.1.tar.gz" package found on the mod site?

shumilica -

set the groups on registration as non-post based, and as secondary groups in each location that applies as you create them. Then the groups can be either not included in the groups on registration (admin has to add them to user profiles) or the user has to add them from within their profile (add extra groups - text link under primary group setting)

koopa -

if I remember right, there is a setting in permissions by group that stops them changing member group - might be wrong though.

akabugeyes -

when groups are set as secondary groups (or additional groups according to the link in a user's profile) and they are not post-count groups, how do you get the "star" to appear in their post-side mini-profile?

Here's what I've done -
I've set up (as a start) six non-post-count groups and for each, I've given then a unique icon by replacing the name of the star.gif in the group setup (the icons show happily there so it's not a path or syntax problem.
Permissions for the groups are based on the lowest post-count group, and board access is across the boards (while testing)

In theory, the member group icon should show immediately above or below the stars for the relevant post-count group they're in, but it doesn't, and when I go into themes/default/Display.Template.php there is no code to include any non-postcount icon except the primary group (e.g. Administrator) therefore the mod appears incomplete as it has not inserted code for secondary group icons.

What's going wrong here?

I read thru the posts here and understand that you are working on, essentially, adding this same function to the Profile.  I was wondering if there is any update to be had on that?

What I'm looking for, specifically, is to be able to use one of the fields that I set up using Custom Fields Mod to determine what group a member is placed in.  If they check a certain box, they get placed in one group - if it's unchecked, they go in another.

I'm fairly comfortable with modifying things to meet my exact needs, so just having the backend code to allow them to make the membergroup switch would probably be enough for my purposes and then I could run with that.

Thanks in advance!

Your error is a variant on the most common error of all those reported on these pages (please use the search function prior to posting)...it tells you that another mod you have installed has already edited the file in question and that you thus need to do a manual installation of this mod.
