I need some help with this. I'm trying to make public user groups so people can use them like clans. BUT i don't know how to set a group leader and how to make it work so that he chooses who joins his group and who doesn't.

Thread moved to the low level troubleshooting/help forum.

Woops, my mistake. Thanks for the move.

You can use modo or smodo

Huh???? That doesn't help much....

A little !
I think modo is a good solution

I don't even know what you're talking about.. if you're not gonna help, please don't make me read senseless stuff :p :confused:

When you set them as a public usergroup click on the drop down in the ACP and select ADD Usergroup leader :)

AH! So obvious... yet I wouldn't find it. THANKS :D

Ok I solved that, but now i'm having another problem.. How do I display what public usergroup they are a member of in the postbit? I tried copying the code from the memberinfo template, but it won't work:

See how it has their username, usertitle, and then 'Clan: ', but the usergroup won't appear?

<if condition="IS_MEMBER_OF($post, X)"> Clan: Clan Alpha </if>

replace with the groupid of the additional member group

<if condition="IS_MEMBER_OF($post, X)"> Clan: Clan Alpha </if>

replace with the groupid of the additional member group

nifty...gotta save this one :)

<if condition="IS_MEMBER_OF($post, X)"> Clan: Clan Alpha </if>

replace with the groupid of the additional member group
Ah, this looks good. Ok, now.. Members can create their own clans via User Groups.. but where do do this get what group they are a member of? Sorry, hehe. I just want to know exactly how it works.
:p

Or do I just write an IF statement for every group? 7 groups, 7 IFs? :confused:
maybe IF and the rest ELSE IFs?

oops, I forgot to mentioned this.. maybe IF and the rest ELSE IFs?

if you have more than one group youd need to write more than one

vB supports one else

<if condition="">bla <else /> not bla</if>

Ok, I tried that and it works awesome! but, isn't there a way where I can just use a variable to include the user group name so I don't have to write so many ifs? kinda like this

<if condition="publicgroupid">$grouptitle<else />nuetral</if>
