How Do They Work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????? ??????

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Yes

[Gio~Logist]

i ask em how do they work and he answers yes.... would someone like to explain this?

[amykhar]

Your question was very badly phrased. How do they work and a bazillion exclamation points means nothing. Be specific. Do you mean how do you use them? Do you mean how does the code work? WHAT are you asking?

Hi Gio~

Your question was perfectly understandable from where I am sitting. Try first looking for an explaination in the vB manual that is available over on vB.com

Then try a search over on vB.com for anything to do with public usergroups.

If all else fails, ask over on vB.com as you are very more likely to get some more professional-type responses/help.

Good luck!

Cheers,

Thank You Regs,
What i mean is how do they work.
For example, how would a user request to be part of a group? how can a group leader simply add the user to his/her group? is it possible to list all group members in a group on different page?

Read the manual like Regs suggested.

Now you start to ask questions.
Once there are Joinable Groups, the users will see a new link 'Group Memberships' In their UserCP menu.

If there is a Group Leader Appointed, the request of a member to join the group will first go into a moderation queue. The Group Leader can from his UserCP aprrof or deny members in the queue.

You can by default show them on the show groups page, not sure if you can show them on a sperate page.

[Gio~Logist]

there is no way for the leader of the group to add someone to his group himself? their has to be a link or something like http://www.hiphopground.com/forums/p...ups&add=USERID .... something like that?

[amykhar]

No. The group leaders can't coopt the member and add them to a group. You, as admin, can in the control panel.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Why a Group Leader should be allowed to force someone into a public group? That goes against the idea of the public groups. People must want to join.
