Module: Register To Group

Due to popular demand ...
Attached is a simple module which allows the administrator to define one or multiple groups where users should be added to on registration and the status with which they should be added to the group.
This module works directly on registration. It doesn't take any confirmation/activation status in account.

Have fun with it :-).

v1.0 09-10-2009 - added bugfixes from waldhol below

Thanks for the mod, that's what I was looking for.

Unfortunately it's not working, because the name of the second select_tag is wrong.
Copy+Paste error ;-)

This is wrong:
$frm->addrow("Add A Group", $frm->select_tag("new_group", $arr).$frm->select_tag("group_perm[$group_id]", $group_options, 0));

This is correct:
$frm->addrow("Add A Group", $frm->select_tag("new_group", $arr).$frm->select_tag("new_group_permission", $group_options, 0));

Additionally the ", 0" should either be omitted or replaced by PHORUM_USER_GROUP_UNAPPROVED.
Using the numeric value instead of named constants is not safe.

Holger

added a new release with these fixes.

So I think I could use this in combination w/the Moderated User Group Module. Help me understand if I got this right.

I can configure a user group called "new Users" and then specify w/the other module that all new messages of theirs will be moderated.

Hi Curtis,

I don't use this modules but I think this combination works for you.

Oliver
