Mini Mods - Default Usergroup upon Registration

If you have installed version 1.0.0 please read the "readme.txt" for instructions on how to remove the file edits.
================================================== ==============


I've read some threads asking "How do I have newly registered users inserted into another usergroup besides the current default one"?
I created this simple hack to allow anyone to change the default usergroup to whichever one they choose.

How to install
Download the product XML. Go into to your ACP --> Plugins & Products --> Manage Products click "[Add/Import Product]". Browse to the product you have just downloaded and click "Import".


To change the default usergroup go into your ACP --> vBulletin Options --> User Registration Options. It will be at the bottom titled "Default Usergroup".

Any plans to add a feature such as Usergroup based on Registration Referral Name?

Is there a demo of this I can see?

I'm looking to allow new registrants to tick or click on usergroup choices at registration. This could be one or more usergroups.

Thanks,

Ian

Does this allow the user to be changed to another usergroup once they reach X amount of posts?

Is there something that works along with this but after X amount of posts, the user gets bumped to another user group? I have the promotion thing setup but that didnt seem to work.

I'm using the promotion system and it works very well...

Anyone know if this works with the latest version of 3.6.8?

[andreamarucci]

And with version 3.7?

It works perfectly with 3.7.1 on my live-forum!

I think there appears to be some problem....

OK, what I am trying to achieve is that when a user registers, they have to first validate their email address, and then they are put into a moderation group, and they cannot post until they have validated their email address.

However, what happens now, is that when users register an email is sent out to their email address to validate, but when they click on it, it tells them that their account is already validated. I guess the reason why this is happening is because as soon as they finish registering, they are put into this new moderation group, which doesn't need email validation (which is why they are getting that 'You account is already validated' message).

So is there any way for the plugin to put users into this new moderation group AFTER they have validated their email addresses?
