Question Adding members to multiple groups 

Keywords: groups members
Forum: Instructions for Becoming a Member

From: Martin Huntley <mhuntley>

I have installed 1.9B5.2 and am planning to use it inhouse initially. I'm very impressed with the work you've put in. My aim is to use it in work we are doing with various K-12 communities in several projects being done for the NSF and the US Dept. of Ed.

I have experimented with setting up multiple discussion areas/groups each open to group members only. I had some initial difficulty because .htgroupmembers files were not created properly (this may have been an artefact of my first installing 1.9B5.1 and then installing B5.2) but, after manually editing a couple of these files and their associated .htgroupaccess files, the restricted access seems to be working.

However, what I can't figure out is this: if I've created a new member while in the context of one group, how can I add that person to another group? I can manually edit the access files, but can't figure out whether there is any other (friendlier) way to do it.

Thanks for response when you get a chance.

Martin
