phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software

Looking back through the threads, I found this bit of code for adding users to a specific group when registering them:

change this line in the includes/acp/acp_add_user.php file
CODE: SELECT ALL
'group_id'=> (int) $group_id,


changing $group_id to the group id of the group you want to have them join.

Is there a way to write this so it gives you checkboxes or a dropdown of all the groups available so the admin can pick the right one?

Just add them to the group after you have added them to the forum.

That's one solution, but wouldn't it be easier/nicer to have it so that you can select which group the added user is entered into. Currently, on my test forum [Easyphp Local] before going live with the software and changes, it currently adds all newly added users to the Moderators Group. It a bit of a pain to then have to go into other sections of the admin panel to correct where you want each user to be grouped...

I hope that you will add this feature to your next release, as otherwise, the mod is pretty much perfect.
