User Groups

[hunter22375]

A while back I had someone change the usergroup where members would be sent to after thier subscription expired. Does anyone know how I can change this back to the default user grou "registered users"? Also, is it possible to mass move all the current users in a particular group to another group? Thanks in advance.

You can mass move users from one group to another in Admincp-Users menu-prune users. Afik, users revert to whatever their previous usergroup was before purchasing the subscription.

OK, then how do I change the usergroup members are when they initially sign up?

This is, in my opinion, a flaw in vB as it currently stands: namely, that there doesn't appear to be any way to have new registrations go into anything other than the Registered Users usergroup by default.

I've gotten around this by using a series of user promotions to move from one group to another after being registered for a day - which is about the only way to manage it I've been able to find.

You can change this on-the-fly by hooking into the registration process.

Do you know of any existing hacks/mods that do this? It would be interesting to see what the do, and how they do it.

No, I do not know of any. However it would just be simply calling the data manager's set() function to overwrite the existing value.
