Pre-approval of permissions solution? I'm stuck.

[BLykMik]

Follow up question...

As a datastore newbie, I was wondering 2 things...

1.) Can I substitute another name for emaillist?

and

2.) How would I (later) add another group like this? (say for another client's private list)

--Thanks

1) Yes. Make sure you replace all references
2) Well, the same way - just use another variable name

Oops.. thought I had an error...

It is all good (so far)...

EDITED POST.

Can I get a little clarification on this:

I'm want to simply add permission to user group 12 to all the people on the list (in addition to registered user default privaleges).

If I read it right, it should look like this?

PHP Code:

 $emails = explode(',', $datastore['emaillist']); 
if (in_array($userinfo['email'], $emails) AND $user['usergroupids'] == 2) 
{ 
    $dotitle .= ", membergroupids=IF(membergroupids='', '12', CONCAT_WS(',', membergroupids, '12'))"; 
} 


I'm only changing the two "X" to 12... Is this correct?

I've now tried with the above code and, while I get NO errors, the users are NOT given the permissions that they are supposed to be given.

What could I be doing wrong?

[Andreas]

$user['usergroupid'], not $user['usergroupids']

[BLykMik]

I took the "s" out, but it still doesn't seem to give the permission.

Do I need to change membergroupid"s" also?

[Andreas]

No, membergroupids is correct.

Did you put 'emaillist' into array $specialtemplates?

[BLykMik]

no... will that help?

BINGO! That did it. I appreciate all your help. Thank you very much!

Hey! Are you the same BLykMik from Playstation.com? I've used your post on SOCOM III on my site. I thought it kinda funny to see you here, so thought I'd drop a hello!

[BLykMik]

yup... that's me
