Greetings,

I'm trying to create a forum using wordpress and simple:press. I`m sure the solution to my problem is simple, and in fact I found similar topics but couldn't find any answer to my specific problem

Here is what I am looking for:

Inside my forum, I want to have different sections/groups with different content each one

But the principal issue that I'm facing is the moderation part; I know about the default user groups, and "members" is especially useful to manage all my users, but for example if I ban one user it will be in all the sections of the forum and not just an specific section

The answer seems simple, create new user groups and customize permissions, no problem with that, but it implies a manual labor for every new user...

How can I add automatically all my new users to all of the user groups at the moment of registration?

thanks in advance

Hey Ignacio,

You can use Simple Press in conjunction with any membership plugin that conforms to the WP API. Please see How to Configure Simple Press with Membership Plugin.

This will allow you to have users automatically move to a specified user group depending on how they register.

Hope that helps, please remember that this forum is for pre membership queries and not support, if you have any further support questions please open up a topic in our support forum.
