Hi I'm working on group membership functions - along the lines used in Kristof Cooman's Membership extension. Basically a user's membership of a group is set by adding an extra location for the user's user object in the relevant user group folder. I also want users to be able to remove themselves from groups. For experimental purposes, I achieved this by posting template form data to the (kernel)/content/action.php script as follows:
{def $form_post_url="content/action"}
<form name="locationsform" method="post" action={$form_post_url|ezurl}>
<input type="hidden" name="ContentNodeID" value="{$node.node_id}" />
<input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectID" value="{$user_id}" />
<input type="hidden" name="ViewMode" value="full" />
<input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectLanguageCode" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="LocationIDSelection[]" value="{$current_member_of_user_group_node_id}" title="Remove me from this user group." />
<input class="button" type="submit" name="RemoveAssignmentButton" value="Leave this Group" title="Remove me from this user group." />
</form>
Which works fine, as long as the current user is an Administrator User. Otherwise I get 'Access Denied -You don't have permission to access this area'. Is there a way I can set permissions to allow this to work? Or is there some other easier method I've missed? I'd be pleased to document the solution for everyone if someone can help me out. Thanks
