There are 2 usergroups:
- Registered User
- Private Member

The plan and idea was once a registered user reach 50 posts. He/She automatically becomes a private member.

For example:

a user name's ArabianLuffy. He registered. Of course he is a registered user. Once he reach 50 posts, he bcomes private member (ArabianLuffy)

The goal is to eliminate manual editing for admin, so things change automatically based on number of posts.

Of course there features after certain amount of posts

Registered User: 0 - 49 posts

You want Usergroups > Promotions. Add a new promotion with usergroup "Registered User", Posts=50, and strategy "Posts". ("Reputation Level" and "Days Registered" will be ignored). Then choose "Private Member" for "Move User to Usergroup". You can either have the group changed or added as a secondary group by setting "Promotion Type".

Note that users are promoted by scheduled task, so it might not happen the moment they reach 50 posts. The scheduled task promotes users who have been active recently, so inactive users won't be promoted even if they qualify (although if you run the task manually from the Scheduled Task manager, everyone who is eligible will be promoted).

I did it. I hope it works, and thanks for the INFO.

One more question: How to make a username inside rectangle? A white rectangle. More like a white background.
