Listing members?

Is there a way to visually list (in a block) all the members of a certain permission group, the same way the "Who's Online" block does?

There's such an option in the Admin's list of groups (second but last column).

bye, Dirk

Well I'm familiar with that (next to the "edit" button on the groups Admin page, correct?), but I'd like to actually have a list on the homepage that everyone can see. Again, the same as the "Who's Online" block. I have certain members that belong to a custom group and I'd like everyone visiting the site to be able to see who those members are.

Or am I just not following you correctly...?

In that case, you'll need some customized code ...

I found a post somewhere a while back that does what I think you want. It is a block to list the members of groups (I did not write this but use it on my site, very helpful).

Put the following code in your lib-custom.php file.

Text Formatted Code
/***
* List group members (recursive) - 'List Group Members' Block
* Srikanth Bedathur v1.0 December 25, 2003
* Many thanks to Blaine Lang
*/

function phpblock_groupMembers () {
global $PHP_SELF,$_CONF, $HTTP_POST_VARS,$_TABLES, $_USER;

$checked = array ();

$retval = '<form action="' .$_CONF['site_url']. '/index.php" method="POST">';
$retval .= '<table width="100%" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">';
$retval .= '<tr>';
$retval .= '<td colspan="3" height="30" align="left"><font size="-2">Select Group to list members</font><br></td>';
$retval .= '</tr><tr>';
$retval .= '<td align="left" STYLE="width:55px"><b>Group:</b></td>';
$retval .= '<td colspan="2" align="left" height="25">';
$retval .= '<select name="groupid" STYLE="width:130px">';
$retval .= COM_optionList ($_TABLES['groups'],'grp_id,grp_name',$HTTP_POST_VARS['groupid']) . '</select> ';
$retval .= '</td>';
$retval .= '</tr>';
$retval .= '<tr><td colspan"2" STYLE="width:55px"> </td>';
$retval .= '<td colspan="2" align="left" width="100%" height="30" ><input type=submit name="getMemberList" value="List"></td>';
$retval .= '<tr><td align="left" valign="top" STYLE="width:55px"><b>Members: </b></td><td>';
$retval .= '<table width="100%" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">';

if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['getMemberList'])) {
       
        $groups = getMemberGroups($HTTP_POST_VARS['groupid'], $checked);
       
    $ngroups = count( $groups );
        COM_errorLOG("Num of groups found: '. $ngroups");
       
        $chkretval ="";
        $profileurl = '<a href="/users.php?mode=profile&uid=';

    if ($ngroups > 0) {
       
        $mygrouplist = implode (',' , $groups );
        $sql = "FROM {$_TABLES['users']},{$_TABLES['group_assignments']}
                        WHERE {$_TABLES['users']}.uid > 1 AND {$_TABLES['users']}.uid =
                        {$_TABLES['group_assignments']}.ug_uid AND
                        ({$_TABLES['group_assignments']}.ug_main_grp_id IN ({$mygrouplist}))";
   
        $result = DB_query ("SELECT DISTINCT username, uid " . $sql. " ORDER BY username ");
        $nrows = DB_numRows ($result);
       
       
    for ($i = 0; $i < $nrows; $i++) {
        $A = DB_fetchArray ($result);
   
        $chkretval = $chkretval.'<tr><td colspan="2" align="left"><font size="-2"> '. $profileurl. $A['uid'].'">'. $A['username'] . '</a></font></td></tr>';
        }
   
        }

        $retval .= $chkretval . '</table></td></tr>';
} else {
 $retval .= '</table></td></tr>';
}


$retval .= '</table>';
$retval .= '</form>';

return $retval;

}
 


Then create a block
Block Title - Group Members
Block Name - GroupMembers
Block Type - PHP Block
Block Fucntion - phpblock_groupMembers
(others change or set as you see fit)

I hope that helps

Is there a way to edit this so that only certain groups are listed to visitors?
