Donation Tracker - Add secondary group vs replace

[mckooter]

I have had experience with the donation tracker on a previous project I had, and in testing I think this was the case:

 

Is it possible to setup rewards so it adds a secondary group to a user but does not replace or remove any existing secondary groups?

 

There are far too many combinations on my current setup to have to deal with dissapearing secondary groups. 

 

thanks,

Currently this is a known "bug", where it replaces the secondary groups rather then add to them. I have worked on this before and do have some test code to correct this if needed but it hasn't seen a widespread release yet. With IPB4 just around the corner, this is unlikely to be included by default in the IPB 3.4.x series either.

thanks, i appreciate it, i have a possible alternate way of doing this as well if needed

Hey,

 

if we do buy it any chance you could dig up the rough code and toss it to me? I doubt id need much other than general direction and where you think its wrong, i may be able to see it myself but hard to say without seeing the code :D

Sure, I've had a few people use it but not much testing apart from that.

 

Open admin/applications_addon/other/donate/sources/functions.php

 

Find:

# Workout promotion time

Add ABOVE:

# Combine existing secondary groups and new ones.
if( $reward['promote_secondary'] != $donateMember['mgroup_others'] )
{
$reward['promote_secondary'] = array_merge( explode( ',', $reward['promote_secondary'] ), explode( ',', $donateMember['mgroup_others'] ) );

$reward['promote_secondary'] = IPSText::cleanPermString( implode( ',', $reward['promote_secondary'] ) );
}

Save.
