Hello,

(1) I have several group categories for groups that I've already created. I want to stop any future groups created in those categories, but only in a new category that I will create called (e.g.) NewCategory. How can I achieve this?


(2) Alternatively, how can I ensure that a particular profile type (e.g NewMembers) are restricted to creating groups in NewCategory?

(3) Is there a way to automatically create a group for each user after they register?

(4) Is there a way to automatically create a page for each user after they register?
Hello Abi,

Take a look at the table #__social_clusters_categories_access . Each selected profile represents a single record for the respective categories.

I have a little bit lost here, can you elaborate more details regarding this?

Unfortunately that was no way to restricted this unless you set your new registered user under another Easysocial profile type, so you can set do not allow this profile type user to create group.

Unfortunately that was not possible to achieve this, the only possible is when the user register on your site, it will automatically joined the existing group which you specify from your profile type.

I've seen how I can achieve my aim no. (2) . In the 'general' tab for any Group Category, I can choose the profile type that can create a group in that specific category.

I have nearly 200 group categories and will need to make changes via phpmyadmin - which tables should I manipulate?
