Can't get group badges to work

marksibly

Hi,

I haven't been able to get group badges to work - I've added the group, added 2 members but nothing shows up in forum posts, the way there do here.

On the users' 'Edit Profile' page there's a 'Group Title' heading just below 'birthday' and above 'about me', but there's nothing else there. This only appears when the user is added to the group. My understanding is this is how users 'enable' their badges.

I've tried with both admin and non-admin users, and I don't have many plugins activated - just sendmail and dbsearch. Not the polling one that was causing other users problems with groups anyway.

The group is private and hidden because I want it to be invite only.

'Show badge' is enabled.

I'm on a fairly recent build, just one behind the latest I believe.

Any ideas?

Bye!
Mark

If they are hidden, I do not think its badge will show up though...

@crazycells Yeah, nah, tried that before and again just now, hidden refers to the group, not the badge:

If enabled, this group will not be found in the groups listing, and users will have to be invited manually

Which is what I want.

@marksibly are you using nodebb v3?

With the current codebase, making a group hidden also removes it from the badge selection.

I think closest you can get is with the below settings. Group will be visible but you will still need to invite people.

Yes, it's working now, not sure why it wasn't earlier but thanks everyone!
