Topic: Registration group settings

Hi everyone, first this is my first post and I have just purchased the newest version of VLD Personals.  I looked through the forums for my answer and could not find it. 

Okay here goes I made a new member group called charter members. Then I went to settings registration/groups. I changed Regular member group and pending member group to charter member. Now when I go and signup a member and look at there profile it still says regular member, but in the cp under manage members it shows them as a charter member.  So the question is how do I get it to show correctly in the profile.

Thanks for any help you can give on this.

Re: Registration group settings

Member Groups, and Profile Types are 2 different things.

Script Installs | Site Transfers | vldPersonals Mods
Url Shortening Service

Re: Registration group settings

Sorry want I meant to say under their profile where it says membership it still shows the default member group and not the one I set as the default group.  Thanks for helping out.

Re: Registration group settings

Hello tmcdowell,
You hace to edit account_home.tpl (yourdomain.com/templates/your_template/account_home.tpl) look around line 99 to 116 you will find this code:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<!-- IF session.can_upgrade_account -->
                                                    <!-- IF session.group_id == settings.regular_member_group -->
                                                        {lang:"home","account_free"}
                                                        - <a href="{virtual_path}{ifelse:settings.fancy_urls,"1","account/upgrade/","index.php?m=account_upgrade"}">{lang:"home","upgrade"}</a>
                                                    <!-- ELSE -->
                                                        {member_group_name}
                                                        <!-- IF session.expiration_date --><br />
                                                            {lang:"home","expiration"} {session.expiration_date} -
                                                            <a href="{virtual_path}{ifelse:settings.fancy_urls,"1","account/upgrade/","index.php?m=account_upgrade"}">{lang:"home","renew"}</a>
                                                        <!-- ENDIF -->
                                                    <!-- ENDIF -->
                                                <!-- ELSE -->
                                                    <!-- IF session.group_id == settings.regular_member_group -->
                                                        {lang:"home","account_free"}
                                                    <!-- ELSE -->
                                                        {member_group_name}
                                                    <!-- ENDIF -->
                                                <!-- ENDIF -->

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Change settings.regular_member_group with your member group ID


example( wach for bold number):


<!-- IF session.can_upgrade_account -->
                                                    <!-- IF session.group_id == 9 -->
                                                        {lang:"home","account_free"}
                                                        - <a href="{virtual_path}{ifelse:settings.fancy_urls,"1","account/upgrade/","index.php?m=account_upgrade"}">{lang:"home","upgrade"}</a>
                                                    <!-- ELSE -->
                                                        {member_group_name}
                                                        <!-- IF session.expiration_date --><br />
                                                            {lang:"home","expiration"} {session.expiration_date} -
                                                            <a href="{virtual_path}{ifelse:settings.fancy_urls,"1","account/upgrade/","index.php?m=account_upgrade"}">{lang:"home","renew"}</a>
                                                        <!-- ENDIF -->
                                                    <!-- ENDIF -->
                                                <!-- ELSE -->
                                                    <!-- IF session.group_id == 9 -->
                                                        {lang:"home","account_free"}
                                                    <!-- ELSE -->
                                                        {member_group_name}
                                                    <!-- ENDIF -->
                                                <!-- ENDIF -->
