Users can only have 1 social group?

[Unfolded90]

Hello,

I've changed the settings so users can only create 1 social group.
but i would like to have it so they can only join 1 until they leave the other that they have joined.

Any idea how to do this?

I can tell you that there is no default setting to do this and that you will need to write a plugin. I guess when they click to join a group, the plugin would run a query to see if they are in any other groups and if so, spit out a message saying they can't join that group until they leave the other.

Actually, looking at the code around line 1395 or group.php, there is no plugin, so you will need to add the code directly.

I already told you what I would do in my last post:

run a query to see if they are in any other groups and if so, spit out a message saying they can't join that group until they leave the other

That is how I would do it.

If you don't know how write any PHP and need someone else to do it all for you, then you may want to post in either the Modification Requests forum or the Requests for Paid Services forum to hire someone.

@Lynne has graciously covered your options. That is where the request forum areas come in, since it is not a general question.
