Hello,

I'm not sure if this is a misconfiguration of my site or I'm doing something wrong, but I'm unable to put a list of groups available for subscription on user registration form. I wish a user, during the registration, may select group/s to be followed, but on the registration form list of groups is empty (whichever widget I'm using). Any help?

Best regards
VooVeek

There is the OG_Registration module, which is supposed to give this functionality. However, I'm having trouble getting it to work as described here:

#1307480: Add missing documentation for the Organic Groups Register submodule

I'd give those steps a try and see if it works for you. If not, let me know and we can escalate that up to the og team.

Hi,

executed but without success. In group "edit" page now there is a checkbox "Include on registration page", in the user registration a new list appeared "Groups audience" but still empty ("None").
Any further help highly appreciated.

best and thanks

I am experiencing the same problem, followed the instructions #1, and get the same behavior as in #2. I was able to get a group membershop dropdown selector on the registration page, but the only option available is "none".

Funny fact: now in a profile I have "Group membership" with list of all groups and "Group audience" with list of all groups: both not related i.e. subscribed to groups from "membership" and not subscribed to same groups from "audience". I'd say that procedure from #1, even if successful, cannot resolve the problem stated in bug report - if user will subscribe to "Group audience" groups it is not the same he/she is in "Group membership".

And next funny fact: "Group membership" field is visible only for administrators, registered users have not this even if it is "required"

Hello again,

is anybody who may take care about the mentioned problem:

"And next funny fact: "Group membership" field is visible only for administrators, registered users have not this even if it is "required"

My site users cannot choose to which group they want to be subscribed? Is this a bug?

Same issue

User can register for a group on the registration form using og_group_ref but then can't edit the value. I have users registering using Facebook oauth but I then need them to select group to join using Complete profile, because they don't access to edit the field they can't do this. Any help?

I have got Groups to add to my registration page by following the instructions in #11 and upgrading Organic Groups to 7.x-2.3.

However, after registration groups are not 'followed' on the user page.

Thanks for the patch. #14 appears to be hard-coded, which isn't appropriate for sites that don't want this feature.

it also needs revision to follow the Drupal coding standards.

As far as I can tell, this is a feature request and not a bug report. Adjusting the category and priority.
