Any ideas where to find this?

Hi,

I've had this problem for awhile - can't figure it out. I just upgraded from 3.0 to 3.1 to see if it would fix it. It was a clean upgrade and it still doesn't work.

Here's what I have:

Usergroup: Registered User

This group as no HTML Markup

I have a paid subscription UserGroup: Contributing Member

This group has HTML Markup and a different UserTitle

When the paid subscription goes through, the users primary usergroup is: Registered User. Their secondary usergroup is: Contributing Member

The HTML Markup AND the usertitle overrides do not work.

I have both Usergroups set to YES for: Allow Users to have Member Groups (Sets whether or not permissions from the user's member (secondary) user group memberships are inherited or not)

If I manually make the user's primary usergroup: Contributing Member, and the secondary usergroup: Registered User; the usertitle override works, but the HTML Mark up still doesn't work.

To make it more interesting....

The moderator's are all set as primary usergroup: Moderator and their secondary usergroup: Registered User; and their usertitle override AND their HTML Mark up works!

I had someone work on my site before, and maybe he messed this up? Because the HTML Markup *did* work in the very beginning when I tested it. But I reverted the two templates that he had edited, and it still doesn't work.

Where would I look to figure out what might be causing this problem?

Thanks,

Brandy

lol may be easier if you just set them as same options in each different usergroup, and then in the second one which they are "going to" after contributing or w.e., just make the changes. and then make it their primary usergroup. So make a usergroup same options, just with the extra options and then move / promote them to that. I barely ever use secondary as it can get messy and confusing.

The user has to go to their usercp and look under "Group Membership" to choose to be identified by their secondary group.

The HTML markup also worked for the primary group after I repaired/optimized tables.

I thought of that too - the only problem is that contributing members get access to a private forum. If I paid money and then had to wait 10 hours before the admin manually gave me permission I wouldn't be very happy. That also creates a lot more work for me to do, and I'm into doing less

Thanks for your quick reply though!!!!!!

Hmm, well since I can't really code/hack. I'll leave this to the experts. I was thinking that you could put a "You will gain access within 24 hours and we gladly accept, and thank you for your contribution." kinda message. And then just set it active within those.
