Hey guys I got a question

Is it possible to make a User automaticly member of a second usergroup if he joins the first usergroup through the Usercp?

To clarify this I want to give a random example.

I got 3 usergroups in my forum:


Registered Users (default)
Customers (not joinable)
Vip for lifetime (joinable)

The usergroup "Registered Users" is the default one, which you get when you register at the board. The "Customers" usergroup is just a tag which shows that you are a customer of our page, and then theres the "vip for lifetime" which indicates, that you paid some money or whatever.

Now what I want is, that when you join the usergroup "Vip for lifetime", then it automatically sets you also as a member of the "Customers" group, does anyone have an idea how to do that?

Thanks in advance

Sorry I don't know how to do this but I know that you can edit primary and secondary user groups so thats how to do it manually

I am currently doing it manually, but it gets kinda annoying to change about 30 users group memberships a day.

How are you doing the "vip for lifetime" set up? If it's a paid subscription then you can set the customer's usergroup as a secondary usergroup. Or why not give the VIPs the same permissions as the customers? That way they don't have to be a member of two usergroups.

Well thats the problem, its not a paid subscription, ist just a simple usergroup which can be joined through the usercp, and if the responsable person approves the application, then he'll be a member of that usergroup immediately. And lets say, I just wanted to know if its possible, because I know that I could just give them the same rights, but I'd like to keep it as it is.
