Custom registration Question
Theophile
Anonymous
I plan to adapt the info from the "Custom registration example" thread to add "Full Name" to the required fields, but I have another more advanced question.
I want to make it so that if users register with an email address from a certain domain, they are automatically added to a given group. I know this is beyond my technical abilities but I am hoping someone else might be able to knock it out for me.
Any suggestions appreciated! Thanks!

I'm no expert on the custom registration code (it is confusing) but it seems like you would modify CUSTOM_userCreate with the following call:
include_once $_CONF['path_system'].'lib-user.php';
USER_addGroup('name of group', $uid);
}
I'm not sure the include_once is needed. But it shouldn't hurt.
Text Formatted Code
if (strstr($email,'domain.com')) {include_once $_CONF['path_system'].'lib-user.php';
USER_addGroup('name of group', $uid);
}

Thanks for the suggestion.
I gave it a try, but it didn't work.
Upon further investigation, it looks like Geeklog doesn't recognize the USER_addGroup function (I couldn't find it anywhere in the distribution). I went poking around trying to find code in the distro that adds a user to a g roup and the closest thing I could find is in the public_html/admin/groups.php file. Buried in there is this:
for ($i = 1; $i <= sizeof ($groups); $i++) {
if (in_array ($grp_id, $GroupAdminGroups)) {
if ($VERBOSE) COM_errorLog("adding group_assignment " . current($groups) . " for $grp_name",1);
$sql = "INSERT INTO {$_TABLES['group_assignments']} (ug_main_grp_id, ug_grp_id) VALUES (" . current($groups) . ",$grp_id)";
DB_query($sql);
}
next($groups);
}
}
Looks like whenever you add a user to a group, you have to directly modify the SQL tables. Am I going in the right direction here? I'm really bad at this.
Thanks in advance!!!!

It may be a Geeklog 1.4.1 only function. It is definitely there.

I am running 1.4.1
Do I have it in the right place?
{
global $_CONF, $_TABLES;
// Ensure all data is prepared correctly before inserts, quotes may need to
// be escaped with addslashes()
$email = '';
if (isset ($_POST['email'])) {
$email = COM_applyFilter ($_POST['email']);
$email = addslashes ($email);
}
if (strstr($email,'mc.edu')) {
include_once $_CONF['path_system'].'lib-user.php';
USER_addGroup('students', $uid);
}
$homepage = '';
if (isset ($_POST['homepage'])) {
$homepage = COM_applyFilter ($_POST['homepage']);
$homepage = addslashes ($homepage);
}
etc...
Thanks

For some odd reason, it doesn't lookup group names for you.
include_once $_CONF['path_system'].'lib-user.php';
$grp_id = DB_getItem($_TABLES['groups']), 'grp_id', "grp_name = 'students'");
USER_addGroup($grp_id, $uid);
}

USER_addGroup($grp_id, $uid);
}

Again, thank you so much for your help.
The above code gives this error:
In context, line 164 is this line:
Any idea what the culprit may be?
THankS!!

Extra parenthesis after $_TABLES['groups']:

I would like to incorporate the custom registration into my site, but I'd like the user to be able to choose their own password, and also I'd like to have fields for birthdates and a referrer field that will be able to add a 'number of referrals' field to the referring user's profile.
I've tried a few things, but either I'm not putting the code in the correct place, or my code is just completely bunk.
Any ideas?
