I just created a group, added a font awesome flair to it, and added a user with no other groups or flair to that group. His title updated immediately, but his flair is still not showing up. I think this is the same thing I ran into over here: [image] Primary group not made primary b…

Does flair only show on primary groups? He has no other groups. Edited to answer the question: I just checked, and no, it was not listed as his primary group. (There was no primary group specified for that user.) Making it the primary group made the flair show up. But my question above remains. Doe…

[image] jtbayly: Does flair only show on primary groups Yes it does. [image] jtbayly: isn’t that a bug? No… why would it be? I guess one could argue being part of a single group should make that single group your primary group, but I don’t think it has ever worked that way

Because flair is specified for the group. I’m a member of the group. I have no other flair conflicting with that flair assignment. Therefore the flair should show up. On what basis wouldn’t it? And what’s the point of having primary groups if every group has to be primary in order to use basic feat…

[image] jtbayly: And what’s the point of having primary groups if every group has to be primary in order to use basic features? :man_shrugging: What are you talking about here? Primary is important to Flair in that you can only have one flair, so denoting which group it should be shown for is…

I don’t know what you mean by expensive and iteration. I mean, I do, I’m a programmer. But right now I’m just a user. Don’t bother me with implementation details. What I’m saying is quite straightforward. I assigned a title and flair to a group. I put a member in that group. The flair didn’t show …

Honestly, I would have expected the title to need the user to have that group as their primary group too…

Sure. That would be consistent. But I would argue that it would be silly. What’s the point of requiring a group to be the primary group before flair and titles show up? (And thanks for your explanation about “primary” groups.)

I have two groups, GroupA & GroupB. Both have flair and titles. GroupB is the more important one, so I mark it as “default to primary.” If somebody is a member of groupA, they should get flair & title from groupA (because they are a member of it, after all, so they should get the benefits), and if s…

Set the primary group of the user to GroupB

Are you saying that I need to manually set every user’s primary group? Because that’s the only way I can figure out to do it, since both groups have to be set to default to primary just to get flair to show up by default.

Flair either not showing or delayed

Did you make sure it is set as his primary group?
