vBulletin 3.0.3 - Additional Usergroups Help?
« on: September 24, 2004, 09:49:14 pm »

Got Coppermine working well enough, thanks for making such a nice piece of software open source.

I am having problems with GROUPS.

It appears that only the "Primary Usergroup" is considered when assigning the user permissions in Coppermine. I would like for it to also consider the "Additional Usergroups" and have it concatenate all the "YES" permissions from all the user's assigned groups.

Anyone?

???

Can anyone at least suggest where to start looking? What function/php handles the permission checking for vBulletin 3.0.3? I can most likely code this myself given a starting point.

Thanks.

when bridged with a bbs, coppermine doesn't take secondary usergroups into account, only the primary group the user is in. This is by design and can only be changed with vast code changes in several places (hasn't been done yet afaik, so there's no link or hint I could give).
When posting questions, allow days before bumping, not hours - this board is run by unpaid volunteers, so a bit more patience is necessary.
