[Forum] What PHP code in register.php controls mail validation group movement?

[Skyrider]

As per title. I'd like to know, which part of the code in register.php is controlling where a user is being moved to another group after he/she validated his/her email address.

EDIT:

Found it:

$userdata->set('usergroupid', $user['usergroupid']);

at // ### DO THE UG/TITLE UPDATE ###. line 1507.

Please don't mess with that code, you're going to break a lot of things.

It's not exactly that I want to, it's just that I'm afraid for the steam login system and steam linked primary group users, I have to. The only thing I intend to do is adding a IF / ELSE code. If the user has steam linked, put the user into the steam link primary group, ELSE using the default $userdata->set('usergroupid', $user['usergroupid']); code. From what I tested, nothing has broken down yet. It shouldn't affect normal new vB registered users at all.

The branch is if ($vbulletin->GPC['a'] == 'act')

You will probably want to use a plugin on the register_activate_process hook.

That's kinda a problem. Whenever someone is activating his/her mail address, and the user is logged out or used the activation link on a different account, the user is being moved to the default registered group 2.

Are you saying that a plugin you made isn't working like you expect? Maybe you're using $vbulletin->userinfo (the current user's info) when you should be using $userinfo (the info of the user being activated).
