Assign a User to a Group

Now that you have created the group Forum Admins, you will assign a user to that group. Let's assign the user that you created when you registered as a new user.

From the Admin menu in the System Menu module:

  1. Select Settings > Users.
    Admin menu

     Tip

    You can also click the Admin users button at the top of the Assign permissions to group page or the Users button in the Quick Admin area.
  2. On the Users tab of the Admin Users page, click the Actions icon for the user that you created earlier and select Add or remove from a group from the popup menu.

     Tip

    As the admin, you can create accounts for new users by using the Add a New User area or uploading a pre-defined file. This allows you to create an account for a new users, without that user having to complete the registration process. It is an easy way to "pre-populate" your Tiki's user base. Refer to the Tiki Documentation for details.

    The Change group assignments window appears. Click Add to and then select the Forum Admins group.

  3. For security confirmation, enter your admin password, then click OK.

Tiki saves the information and reloads the page. In the User Information area, the Forum Admins group is now listed for the user.

You cannot remove a user from the Anonymous group. All visitors belong to the Anonymous group. Additionally, any validated user is automatically a member of the Registered group.
