Modify Usergroup

[MrLeN]

I would just like to let everyone to know that there's no flat file system. There's no text files. There's no referral system. There's no other login areas. I deleted it all. It doesn't exist and there's no way for me to get it back.  So we can forget all about that now. It's all gone, never ever to be seen again, by anyone in humanity, or elsewhere in the universe.

All I need is if someone goes to a certain URL, they get added to usergroup "9".

How can I do that?

For the first version mostly copied from Baby Daisy's first post, for the second one mostly copied from Subs-Member.php...

Code Select Expand

<?php
include_once('/PATH/TO/FORUM/DIRECTORY/SSI.php');

global $sourcedir, $context;
require_once($sourcedir . '/Subs-Members.php');

      // $group_id should be whatever the id of the group you want to pass the member into
      $group_id = 9;

      // $id should be passed as the ID of the member that requested the subscription
     addMembersToGroup($context['user']['id'], $group_id);

That way the user need to be able to assign membergroups.

This doesn't need this permission:

require_once($sourcedir . '/Subs-Members.php');

      // $group_id should be whatever the id of the group you want to pass the member into
      $group = 9;
if(!empty($context['user']['id'])){
     $members=  array($context['user']['id']);
db_query("
UPDATE {$db_prefix}members
SET additionalGroups = IF(additionalGroups = '', '$group', CONCAT(additionalGroups, ',$group'))
WHERE ID_MEMBER IN (" . implode(', ', $members) . ")
AND ID_GROUP != $group
AND NOT FIND_IN_SET($group, additionalGroups)
LIMIT " . count($members), __FILE__, __LINE__);
}

wow, that's looking pretty much like what I need. Thanks

I can't tell if it works yet, because I have some stuff to do today, but I will check to see if it works later

However, something tells me that will work.

I just have one other problem.

How can I make a page that is only displayed to people in usergroup 1,2 or 9?

ie:

1 is administrators
2 is global moderators
9 is vip members

I want to say:

if (person is in usergroup 1,2 or 9) {
  echo "You can see this area..";
}
else {
  echo "You cannot see this area..";
}

..??

This is the script you want.

Code Select Expand

<?php
include_once('/PATH/TO/FORUM/DIRECTORY/SSI.php');

// $group_id should be whatever the id of the group you want to pass the member into
$group_id = 9;

function add_to_group()
{
    global $context, $user_info, $scripturl, $group_id;

    if ($context['user']['is_guest'])
       fatal_lang_error('no_access');

    if (in_array(1, $user_info['groups']))
       fatal_error('You cannot move an admin out of their group!');

    addMembersToGroup($context['user']['id'], $group_id);

    redirectexit($scripturl);
}

add_to_group();
?>

To show specific content try using something such as;

Code Select Expand

if (in_array(9, $user_info['groups']))
echo 'content displayed to members in group 9!';
