End-User Options - PB Usergroup Choice on registration

What does it do?
Allows a user to be assigned to a certain usergroup based on a drop down menu at registration time.

How is it different from the one posted a couple of days ago by Viet:
Well,
1. This one will work with email verification. So you can still require email verification for all new users and they will be assigned to the appropriate usergroup after their email has been verified.
2. It will automatically draw in the usergroup names for the ids instead of having you type out both the usergroup ID's and usergroup names.

Installation:
1. Import the product
2. Go to AdminCP->vbulletin Options->Vbulletin Options->PB Usergroup Choice on Register
and set up the options the way you want...

Notes:
Will add 1 query when showing the registration form.
Will add 1 more query to the processing of a registration if VB is set up for every user having to verify email addresses.

Fixed:
Forgot table prefix in one call to the database causing database error.

Would it work on the new VBB4? This is such a great mod!

This is interesting. I'm doing something like this in vb4. Did anyone ever figure out how to support selecting multiple groups? I'm trying to figure out what the code would be to assign more than a single usergroupid or membergroupids at a time.

change the part of the ifnotemail script to:

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

(obviously only the userdata set line)

and then add a plugin into the same product with hook location:
"register_addmember_process"

and paste inside this:

if($vbulletin->options['verifyemail']){
  $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'accounttype',TYPE_INT); 
  $accountusergroupid=$vbulletin->GPC['accounttype']; 
  $userdata->set('membergroupids', $accountusergroupid);
}

and in the end change the ifemail script, the SQL query has to become like this:

$vbulletin->db->query_write("UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "useractivation SET usergroupid = 2 WHERE activationid = '".$activateid."' LIMIT 1 ");

I'm actually using it for another pourpose but the principle is the same..
I'll keep an eye on this thread for any questions.

does not work for me : S

Anyone tried this in 4.1 yet?

[ShackMaster]

I can verify that it does not work in 4.1

Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class. Template name: pb_usergroupchoice_field in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4055

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /includes/class_core.php(4414) : eval()'d code on line 276

I'm really interested in having this mod work on my board, and would be willing to pay to have it upgraded to v4.1.x.

Any chance of this happening?

[AFemaleProdigy]

I really would like to use this for vb4 too. Tried to install and got the same error.
