Automatically Add New Users To A Group

Unterstützung
1

I want to:

  1. Create a custom Group (call it Newbies)
  2. Automatically add every new user to Newbies

Seems simple but I haven’t been able to find the answer.

That’s not currently supported short of writing a plugin to do that.

If you want all the new users, you can always use the @trust_level_0 group.

Here is my desired use case. Looking for possible solutions.

  1. All New users are automatically Group A and see X content, but not Y content.
  2. New users are manually put into Group B. Group B sees Y content, but not X content.

I have tried this with trust levels this way: New users are TL1. TL1 sees Content X based on Topic level Security settings. The problem is that >TL1 users also see X content. I want to hide X content from >TL1.

I feel like I have a good grasp on Trust Levels, Groups and Topic Security Settings, so I am looking for solutions I have overlooked.

Anyone have any creative solutions for this use case?

I really wish this would be a feature that’s available out of the box. Since Discourse already has the ability to add new users from a specific domain, it doesn’t seem that big of a stretch to let us have the ability to add all new users (regardless of domain) to a certain group designated as a primary group by the admin.

the problem with this solution is that TL0 also/always includes TL1 and above. There is no way to target those who are only TL0

I have wanted to have the ability to show content to NEW members for some time, and the way I was thinking of doing this was to have a category, only visible to new members, that includes the most basic materials for getting started, and would eventually disappear (as they are awarded TL1 or maybe TL2)

I can create a category with security settings to show to TL0 but this does not achieve the desired result.

Most settings around Trust Levels are additive, and not exclusive - so you get more and more access, but cannot use increasing trust to hide content that might be ‘noise’

I was thinking that a badge query might help by awarding it to new customers who join, and then have the badge revoked when they no longer qualify (e.g. “member where days since joined < 60”) - are revocation queries run automatically or is this something that we need to add?

Unfortunately, you can’t use badges to limit access, as that belongs to Groups

I know that there have been other thoughts around this (like this: What if badges could optionally synchronize group membership? ) but I can’t find any further developments

Is there another way to achieve this (without a custom plugin, because we’re hosted)?

Same here. When we first get discourse, New users don’t even have a trust group. They do but it is very limited, a couple of badges and they are in T1, but the tag inordinately includes T1 if you tag @trust_level_0 …You can’t add automatic trust level without going to T0 first…even Discourse has not achieved it or made a plugin with that kind of system :thinking:

No, not that I am aware of. Or Discourse for that matter.

Ich merke, dass ich hier einen alten Thread wieder aufgreife, aber ich habe den gleichen Wunsch:

  • Ich habe eine Gruppe, die nur Mitglieder einer Gruppe sehen können sollen, da ich Mitglieder einer kleineren Gruppe ausschließen möchte (die größere Gruppe sind „Aktivisten“, die kleinere Gruppe sind „gewählte Amtsträger“).
  • Ich möchte alle neuen Mitglieder automatisch zur Hauptgruppe („Aktivisten“) hinzufügen.

Dies würde durch das gelöst, was @zaino in seinem ursprünglichen Beitrag gesagt hat.

Vielleicht schauen Sie sich das Automatisierungs-Plugin an: Adding users to groups through custom field automation
