Users being removed from Usergroups

Hey guys,
I am having some problems with random users being removed from their usergroup.
Does anyone know why this might be happening?
Thanks

I asked the same thing at vbulletin.com, and they said it is either a promotion thing or a modification i have installed.
I don't have any promotions setup so it must be a modification. Does anyone know of a mod that can cause this?

And another custom mod made for me which "Associates custom profile fields with groups". But i have had that mod double checked for me to make sure it has no bugs, but i may have to get someone else to check it for me as well.

So yeah... any thoughts?

Impossible to say what is causing this.

Quicjest way to find out would be to disable all your modifications and see if it still happens.

Murty

10-12-2007 10:15 AM

Yeah.
Do you know who i can contact about checking out a mod for me?

--------------- Added at 15:54 ---------------

Would there be anyone willing to take a look at the mod for me. I could give you a little bit of money if you want.

I would search through your mods for anything that has to do with a query to the user table and modifying either the usergroupid or membergroupid.

Murty

Yeah I think i have found the mod that is causing the problem. But it was a custom made mod that someone made for me, and i cant get in contact with them at the moment. Is there someone that has any idea about coding and would be willing to take a look at the mod for me?

Thanks

Try posting the code here, and maybe someone has a solution for you.

Murty

OK, well here is the code.

This is the .php file under /includes

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

foreach (explode(',',$userdata->fetch_field('membergroupids')) as $pg_group)
{
    $pg_groupids[$pg_group] = $pg_group;
}
foreach (explode("\n",$vbulletin->options['profile_groups']) as $pg_triple)
{
    list($pg_field,$pg_groupid,$pg_yes) = split(';',trim($pg_triple));
    if ($pg_field and $pg_groupid)
    {
        if (!$pg_yes)
        {
            $pg_yes = 'Yes';
        }
        if ($userdata->userfield[$pg_field] == $pg_yes)
        {
            if (!($pg_groupids[$pg_groupid]))
            {
                $pg_groupids[$pg_groupid] = $pg_groupid;
            }
        }
        else
        {
            if ($pg_groupids[$pg_groupid])
            {
                $pg_groupids[$pg_groupid] = 0;
            }
        }
    }
}
foreach ($pg_groupids as $pg_groupid => $pg_value)
{
    if ($pg_value == 0)
    {
        continue;
    }
    if ($pg_membergroups)
    {
        $pg_membergroups .= ',' . $pg_value;
    }
    else
    {
        $pg_membergroups = $pg_value;
    }
}
$userdata->set('membergroupids', $pg_membergroups);

?>

There are also some plugins and an admincp thing if you want them?

I hate having to bump all the time, but i really need some help with this.
Thanks

It is sometimes hard to just jump in and 'read' someone else's code which is why you probably aren't getting a whole lot of help with this. Maybe explain what you are trying to do with that script and people can think about how they would go about it and then 'read' what the problems are with how you went about it.

OK, fair enough.

Just to refresh peoples minds, my problem is that users are being removed from their usergroup randomly.

Well basically what this mod does is when a user registers, they select 'male' or 'female' (setup in 'user profile field manager'). Then depending whether they select 'male' or 'female' it puts them in the specified user group that I define.

There is an option in 'admincp' where i can define these settings.

This is what it looks like:
field5;9;Female
field5;10;Male

So 'field5' is the profile field; '9' or '10' are the usergroups; 'female' or 'male' are the options that the user can select at registration.

Note: the user can only select their gender AT registration, nowhere else.

There are also 2 plugins.
One has a hook in the 'register_addmember_process' location, with php code:

PHP Code:


		
			
require_once(DIR . '/includes/profile_groups.php');

The other one has a hook in the 'profile_updateprofile' location, with the php code:

PHP Code:


		
			
require_once(DIR . '/includes/profile_groups.php');

(That "/includes/profile_groups.php" is the code a couple posts above.)

I'm not 100% sure, but I'm not sure if there should be a plugin at the 'profile_updateprofile' location...

That sounds like a logical explanation. If your members can only enter their gender at registration time, then there is no use to also run it when they update their profile. I can imagine that this automagically changes the usergroup.

But i guess this could be easy tested.

Well i've turned it off, ill see how it goes.
Thanks for your advice marco.
