that you want to look into the documentation regarding enabling application events.

I believe there is a user event that passes the newly created user object to a predefined class and thus a function.

It is in the documentation, again I haven't had the time or the requirement to look into this and enable some of this functionality, but this is something that certainly interests me :)

This part is documented, see this page:http://www.concrete5.org/help/building_with_concrete5/developers/mv...

There is a group called registered users where members are member of automatically. I think that's they way to go, if you don't want to write extra code.

and so far I haven't been able to make it work.
This is what I have done so far:

I have added the
<?php define('ENABLE_APPLICATION_EVENTS', true); ?>
to the config/site.php

and then I have created a site_events.php with the following in it:

<?php Events::extend('on_user_add',
'ApplicationUser',
'setupUserGroup',
'models/application_new_user_group.php'); ?>

and I added code to the application_new_user_group.php page and EVERY time I try it out (and I have changed it quite a few times) I keep getting
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/*****/public_html/models/application_new_user_group.php on line 1

This is what is in the file atm.

<? php $g = Group::getByID(4);
$u = new User();
$u->enterGroup($g);
?>

I'm not too clued up with php, any suggestions to what I'm doing wrong?

*edit*
I know there is a registered users group but I want it to be in a custom group to make life easy when I want to change things.

i put a space between <? and php. i removed that and now get the following error:

An unexpected error occurred.
mysql error: [1048: Column 'uID' cannot be null] in EXECUTE("INSERT INTO UserGroups (uID,gID,type,ugEntered) VALUES (NULL,'4','','2009-05-11 03:16:50')")

You can't add the value NULL to uID, that has to be an ID and it's auto generated by the autoincrement function in the MySQL table. So remove the uID column and the NULL value from the INSERT query.

make the INSERT query, that was done by the CMS..

All i have done is what i have posted

can you do a print_r($u) just to be sure that there's an user id in that structure?

if you're not logged in, that one might be empty

User selecting:
Current user:

OR:
Based on ID:

But I am not sure... How to get the ID of the latest registered user?

And add to group:

That's probs what's causing the issue that its not got the latest user id.

Well not to worry - I will use the default reg group atm and I'm sure I will come up with something lol

thanks for your help guys

After the user is created the function add() returns the user ID in the user object, but I guess it's not send.

You could try


This will return a whole lot of stuff which should contain a user object, you could use that variable, but I am not sure. You should check this for yourself.
