Is it possibile to set the system to add all new users to a specific group? Like for example "First step group"
Hello Leo,

Sorry for late reply to this,
If I'm not getting wrong your meaning, do you mean that when the a new user finish their registration then they will under the specific group right?
If yes, unfortunately that was not possible in current system.

Hello Arlex,
the second one, the group user.

I need that all new users automatically join the one and only group available for the website

You can do it easily using a cron job.

here's an idea (kind of lazy programming right now, LOL)
1. Create another table in your user with int (0 as default)
2. Create a simple query, if user.new_table = 0 assign group = group_id, update user.newtable = '1';

Make the query run every 5 minutes, all new user will automatically be assigned to that group (every 5 minutes) if the table is 0. Or you can make a hack (I do not reccomend since you need to re apply it every update).
