Hi, is it possible to limit users to only be in 1 group at a time?
Im using groups as teams and a user can only be in one team, the player has to leave his current team to be able to join a new team. I can only find where to limit the number of groups that can be created by a user.
No, it has no functionality to limit users to 1 group. There are no plans for such a feature at this time as it would increase the access checks for join links across the entirety of GJ, which would also require a query to do it resulting in a performance loss on nearly every GJ display.

You could have a CB Query Field that counts the number of groups they're in. Then using a Redirect action on the gj_onBeforeJoinGroup trigger to check if the count is greater than or equal to 1. If it is you can redirect them away, which should prevent the ->store from being called so they won't be able to join another group at all until leaving their current.

Thank you, I will try that because it sounds like the best solution.
I also had another question, since only GJ 3.0 beta works on my website, can I install that on my live website and later update to the normal version when its released? The old GJ did not work at all with the newest CB, but the beta works almost perfect.
Yes, you can install the beta and upgrade to RC then subsequently stable when released. Just please keep in mind it is a beta and using a beta on a live site is not recommended.

I guess I could just remove the user from his previuos group when he joins a new with AutoAction query and "Before Join Group" as trigger.
