Instead of having only one group assigned, new users are receiving all the existing groups - even tho they are closed groups - this ended up in them being able to read all the messages/notifications being sent to anyone. ![fXs42RuK](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/b/a/ba8ec50bb477d9aaf50db13f44cac593d31dbe7b.png) ![Wh02NzT4](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/3/b/3b1da7902f688e0e4335aaa3d76dc5312ac47411.png) If I check their profile using admin options it says they only have one group assigned and only Trust0 & Trust1 permissions. PS: Beta group does not have any permissions that could be making them see that. In short: how can I make users have only one specific group instead of what’s happening now? ---

Hello Gabriel Zurmely, I actually got the same issue than you. Does someone have found a fix for that ? ---

Might be worth changing this to the bug category. ---

I am pretty sure it was a bug with my installation, first time doing it - might have messed with app.yml and other things I should not have. Sorry for posting this topic before trying all I could. 😑 Deleted docker images and reinstalled it, works great now! ---
