Auto assignment of groups

[Essam]

here is what I'd like to do:

I want to add users to a group based on the forum where they write in usually.

so basically the hack will check where each user post , or where most of his posts are , and then add him to group.

This can be used with Community Bulletin Generator.

I think this hack will be very useful for many ppl.

Thanks,

Yep - good idea, I'd definately be interested in something like this.

I will be running a number of forums for 'rival' teams - I'd like to let all registered users be able to post on any forum, but I'd also like the option where say you get a user repeatedly posting unwanted stuff on a rival teams forum then the moderator for that forum may ban the user from posting on that forum and only that forum. I guess something like your above suggestion may be useful in implementing something like this.

I think an sql query with a loop will do it.

1- check user's post.

2- get the percentage of his post in each forum.

3- assign him to the corrospondent group based on the percentage.
