Hi Kyle,
with GroupJive i must create category before create groups
So i try the auto function to do that :
each user registered must complete a french zipcode with 5 digits.
the two first digits indicate the department, the other digits are for the cities.
My idea is to auto-create my categories with the 2 first digits of the zipcode.
i tryed this, but i don't know the good way for have only the first two digits from my cb_zipcode field.
Can you help me ?
You can't use PHP functions inline like that. It does not process them. So the only way to do what you're wanting is to use 2 fields so the 2 values have their own fields or to use CB Query Field to query the database and split it using SQL functions.

Thank you Kyle,
i have created a text field "cb_dept" and with auto-action and js code, i get the two first digits of my "cb_zipcode" and i added a style="display:none" on my "cb_dept" field. Then i used the "cb_dept" field to name my categories with the auto function of GroupJive. It works like i wanted it.
Thank you very much.
