i install this mod manually
it seems to be incompatible in BroadIndex.pl [i've installed AMM before]
in this mod Code:

<search for>
            @membergroups = split( /,/, $cataccess{$curcat} );
            $openmemgr{$curcat} = 0;
            foreach $tmpa (@membergroups) { if($tmpa eq $settings[7]) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; last; } }
</search for>

<replace>
            @membergroups = split( /,/, $cataccess{$curcat} );
            $openmemgr{$curcat} = 0;
              fopen(accset, "$memberdir/$username.kri"); 
            @youraccess = <accset>; 
                   fclose(accset); 
            foreach $value (@youraccess) { chomp $value; }
                   foreach $tmpa (@membergroups) { 
                  if($tmpa eq $settings[7] || $tmpa eq $youraccess[0] || $tmpa eq $youraccess[1] || $tmpa eq $youraccess[2] || $tmpa eq $youraccess[3] || $tmpa eq $youraccess[4]) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; last; } } 
</replace>

in AMM mod Code:

<search for>
            foreach $tmpa (@membergroups) { if($tmpa eq $settings[7]) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; last; } }
            if(!$cataccess{$curcat} || $settings[7] eq 'Administrator') { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; }
</search for>

<replace>
            my($mscount);
            $mscount=0;
            foreach $tmpa (@membergroups) {
                  if( $tmpa eq $settings[7]) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; last; }
      while($MemStat[$mscount]) {
      if($settings[6] >= $MemPostNum[$mscount] && $MemPostNum[$mscount] ne "x") {
      $memberinfo = "$MemStat[$mscount]"; }
      ++$mscount;
      }
      if ( $memberinfo eq $tmpa ) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; last; }
            }
            if( ! $cataccess{$curcat} || $settings[7] eq 'Administrator' ) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; }
</replace>

i've some problem with this line Code:

foreach $tmpa (@membergroups) { if($tmpa eq $settings[7]) { $openmemgr{$curcat} = 1; last; } }

Any solution please

Same problem Lips Sealed

Well... not long ago I asked Christer if he could add the ability to have a function that assigns new users at registration time, default membergroups. The membergroups assigned would be assigned like his User's More Membergroups mod does. So... realizing he probably has many other things going on at the time, I decided to write it myself. The mod attached will add an entry below "Edit Member Groups" in Admin center. You then will be able to select up to 5 membergroups that wil be assigned to newly regged users.

Hope somebody can find it useful.

P.S. This mod REQUIRES that Krikkert's(Christers) User More Membergroups mod be installed! ...and as useful as it is... INSTALL IT! Grin

User Rights management... Sounds AWESOME!

I've been thinking of a way to get two mods (EMARO and this) combined so that admins of different categories would have rights to register new members and give them right to read their category.

In practise this would function as a forum for a large group of people that are divided into smaller groups. One member can belong to more than one subgroup. All groups would have a private category in the forum and the leader of that group could grant access rights to his category. Leaders can't be Admins, cause they shouldn't have access to other categories, unless the leader of that category grants him access.

In a nutshell: The forum should function in confirmation-mode (pretty much the same way as in EMARO), but access rights to different categories should be given by the admin of that category..

Doesn't sound too hard to implement?

Perhaps he means some sort of "Catagory Moderator", who can give users access to the catagories he moderates?

(He could mean a standard moderator, but they are board specific, and membergroup access is determined per catagory. You could have two boards with different moderators within the same restricted catagory - but do you want all moderators within the catagory to be able to grant access? or only those that moderate all boards within that catagory?)

[Edit: You're right, it's a nightmare!]

This is not about moderating boards, but moderating category accesses. So the most basic thing to do would be giving the Forum Admin the possibility to define a Category Moderator for each category in his Forum. This Category Moderator would have the possibility to define which members are allowed to access the Boards in the Category he moderates. The easiest would be doing this with member groups so that each Category was dedicated to one member group and the Category Moderator could define the members in this group. Ofcourse there could be members that should have access to more than one category and that is why we need the User's More Membergroups mod. And, thinking this thing more thoroughly, maybe the EMARO is not relevant in this task. Undecided

Does this sound more clear now? Shocked

Before I start to work on this topic:

Considering Jake's reply #83 and lordallout at #120 - do I catch it right, that User's More Membergroups is still incomaptible with Add More Membergroups? Or am I missing something?
???

(I'm using add_more_membergroups_sp1_11 and UsersMoreMembergroups4.mod won't install on top right now - at least these versions are incompatible)
