Hi
I would like to create mailing lists based on the categories I'm building in Groupjive. I would prefer this to be an automated process, probably using CB Auto actions, is my guess? I can see there is a trigger available in Auto actions, when a user joins a group, and I'm wondering if I can set up a sequence which automatically adds the user to a CB userlist which corresponds to the category of the group they have just joined? This seems to me to be the tricky part, linking the list to the group category.
I could then just copy users in different list into mailing lists in Acymailing, for example.
Using CB Auto Actions and the AcyMailing action you can subscribe them to a newsletter when they join a group. This would be done for example using the below usage.
Group Join: Global
Triggers: gj_onAfterJoinGroup
Type: Usergroups
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody Conditions
1: [var2_id] Equal To GROUP_ID_HERE
Group Leave: Global
Triggers: gj_onAfterLeaveGroup
Type: Usergroups
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody Conditions
1: [var2_id] Equal To GROUP_ID_HERE
If you want it to act on any group join simply remove the conditions.
If you want a CB userlist with all users in a specific group that's doable using the Advanced filter within the usergroup and simply querying for it. Example advanced filter as follows.
Code:
( SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `#__groupjive_users` AS gu WHERE gu.`user_id` = u.`id` AND gu.`status` >= 1 AND gu.`group` = GROUP_ID_HERE ) >= 1

I can see how this would work group by group, but is it possible to set this up using Groupjive categories somehow? What I really want is to subscribe all the users in all the groups in a particular category to the same list; for example, say you have a category called "Footballers" and there are groups A, B and C in it. Then, if a user joins group A, and /or group B, they will go on a list for Footballers, and the same for any user joining groups in that category?
