Joomla Community Builder Author Access Level Automatically For Newly Registered Members
When first time registered on our Community Builder site, our new member always have permission as Registered Member by default. If we want to assigned them an Author Level Access, we must do it manually by hand. Thats not a simple way if we managed Social Networking site which will allowed every member to contribute articles / writers community.
But actually we can assigned automatically Author Access for our newly members on Community Builder by modify a one code.
Registration Option
Make sure your member registration is only through Community Builder. Just check Community Builder configuration:
- Login to Joomla Administrator
- Components -> Community Builder -> Configuration
- Select Registration tab
- Make sure the option: Allow User Registration is selected to “yes, independently of global site setting” (see picture below)
Community Builder Registration Tab
Modify Code
Open file comprofiler.php:
/components/com_profiler/comprofiler.php
Find and edit following line:
$row->gid = $acl->get_group_id('Registered','ARO');
into:
$row->gid = $acl->get_group_id('Author','ARO');
Thats all, now your newly registered member on Community Builder will automatically have Author Access so they can submit article into your site.
