Hey there,

This is exactly what I want to do, but I'm having a little trouble with it. I'm checking the correct field for the correct value (field6 is populating properly & I'm checking for the right values). It's hooked at the right place, register_activate_process.

I am using vB 3.5.2 - is that the problem? If so, any thoughts on how to get this to work?

Here's the code I'm using:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> 
  <plugins>
  <plugin active="1" product="vbulletin">
  <title>Put User In User Group Based on Field Value</title> 
  <hookname>register_activate_process</hookname> 
  <phpcode>
  <![CDATA[ 
// Get the value for field 6
        $user = $db->query_first("
			SELECT field6
			FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "userfield
			WHERE userid = " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "
		");


		if ($user['field6'] == 'chicago')
		{
			$userdata->set('usergroupid', 11);
		}
		if ($user['field6'] == 'cincinnati')
		{
			$userdata->set('usergroupid', 10);
		}
		if ($user['field6'] == 'indianapolis')
		{
			$userdata->set('usergroupid', 9);
		}

  ]]> 
  </phpcode>
  </plugin>
  </plugins>

The values for field6 are set up to be all lowercase.

When I click the activation link in the email, a blank window pops up with this address...

...but it freezes there. The user gets activated, but is not assigned to the desired usergroup.

Thanks a bunch for any help.
