Group Memberships?

[sava700]

I saw another site with a place called "Group Memberships" under the USER CP or the Networking section.. I'm curious as to how they set that up as there has to be a VB Hack for it ..anyone point me in the right direction to set this up?

Thanks

It's just allowing a usergroup to be able to be publicly joined.

I see that... however what I'm looking for is to be able to see the groups in public as in a registered user see the groups listed, but there are different joining conditions other than it saying "Anyone is free to join this usergroup"?

There is no place to edit that area for the groups when you make them.

set a usergroup leader in the usergroup manager. the usergroup leader then moderates the requests to join in their usercp. a usergroup leader can be anyone and is not a moderator.

I guess I don't see a place to set someone as a "usergroup leader" in the usergroup manager or if I choose to Edit that group I don't see anything about a leader???

it's in the drop down menu for public joinable usergroups.

I have nothing that says "Public Joinable Usergroups" Nowhere on the left side menus in the admincp can I see anything like this.

I must be either missing it or its just not there for some reason.

ok listen
when you create a usergroup there will be a category called Public group settings. In that category there is an option called (Joinable) Custom Usergroups. Click yes on that box and then go to admincp>usergroups>Usergroup manager>Go down to the public group and on the right you will see a drop down box. Choose it there.

Ok.. no wonder it wasn't showing up.. ok got it thanks!

Another question with this.. one a user is in that group and they are showing up as a specified color of that group under the "current users online" area.. I've seen a few sites if you run the mouse over their name it brings up the little prompt of what it stands for or the group name for example..how do I set the mouse over part?

Add title="some text" to the opening html markup for the usergroup within the existing span tag. If you don't have a span tag (you really need to start using them!) you should use <span title="some text"> as the opening tag and </span> as the closing tag.
