Hey folks! I've read through this whole thread, and can't seem to find anyone with the same problem (except maybe Murty in post #63). It seems that the plugin works for most registrations, but a few users end up in the wrong category. To explain, I've got it set up so field5 is a single-selection menu where members/students pick their year of study. I have it set up so that if they pick "Year 1" from the pull-down (instead of the other options of "Year 2", "Year 3", "Year 4+", "Grad Student" or "Alumni/Other"), they're put in a special usergroup with different forum access (called "Year - 1"), while if they pick anything else, they're put in another usergroup (called "Year - Other").

Settings are like so:

Set Default: Yes, Including a First Blank
Field Required: Yes, at Registration and Profile Updating
Field Editable by User: Only at Registration
Private Field: No
Field Searchable on Members List: Yes
Show on Members List: Yes

Every few days, I've been doing a search for students who have both "Year 1" chosen in the profile field, and are in "Year - Other" usergroup. If I'd set this up correctly, there shouldn't be any users found, but there are always a few.

Any ideas? It might be important to mention that the board has a high registration volume at the beginning of the academic year, so we've had over 1000 new users in 48 days.

PHP Code:

// Get the value for field 5
        $user = $db->query_first("
            SELECT field5
            FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield
            WHERE userid = " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "
        ");


        if ($user['field5'] == 'Year 1')
        {
            $membergroupids = $userdata->fetch_field('membergroupids');
            if ($membergroupids)
            {
                $membergroupids = $membergroupids . ", 13";
            }
            else
            {
                $membergroupids = 13;
            }

            $userdata->set('membergroupids', $membergroupids);
        }
        else
        {
            $membergroupids = $userdata->fetch_field('membergroupids');
            if ($membergroupids)
            {
                $membergroupids = $membergroupids . ", 14";
            }
            else
            {
                $membergroupids = 14;
            }

            $userdata->set('membergroupids', $membergroupids);
        } 


Any insight would be muchly appreciated!
