Tore Skobba	Wednesday 11 February 2004 3:30:35 am Hi all I have a need to add an new user group to my site, this due to that I want to have more data stored at the usergroup level, such as maximum number of members (int attribute). However, I find very little docs for this. I have created the user group and moved a test user to it, everything seems to work fine, but I am bit afraid of that something might crash when I start to move all the ordinary users. So I just hope someone can share some experience on making and using new usergroups, is it as easy as it seems to be? 1: Create the group 2: modify site.ini (UserGroupClassID=X) Cheers Tore

Manually created users and those created from our LDAP server are created ocrrectly and work fine from a custom group. So, yep, its as easy as that. What I am having huge problems with is the display of a custom user object and sections.

Hi all

I have a need to add an new user group to my site, this due to that I want to have more data stored at the usergroup level, such as maximum number of members (int attribute). However, I find very little docs for this. I have created the user group and moved a test user to it, everything seems to work fine, but I am bit afraid of that something might crash when I start to move all the ordinary users.

So I just hope someone can share some experience on making and using new usergroups, is it as easy as it seems to be?

1: Create the group
2: modify site.ini (UserGroupClassID=X)
