[SOLVED] "Bonus" Plan Access

Hi Kyle,

I suppose you could use a query field to query for their raw rank id then condition against that

I'm not sure what you mean by that. I didn't see a 'Query' option in the Field type there. Setting a query field in CB Fields?

I tested in the CB Auto Actions with this Query in the Action tab and setting with

Plan Active Gold
Global
Triggers: onCPayUserStateChange
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditions
1: [var2] Equal To A
Action:
Understanding that my
gold rank id = 5
gold usergroup id = 10
My id's have changed since my lasts post because I'm testing on a clean install, just to make sure there's nothing else interfering.

This didn't work, even when I removed the substitution field [user_id] for the actual id of the user I was testing. The query worked fine if I ran it in the phpmyadmin interface.

The other option I tried is to add another CB Action (with lower order) to run a Query before conditioning against the cb_heritage field.

Like this:

Plan Active Gold (query)
Global
Triggers: onCPayUserStateChange
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditions
1: [var2] Equal To A
Action:

Plan Active Gold (usergroup)
Global
Triggers: onCPayUserStateChange
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Conditions
1: [var2] Equal To A
2: [cb_heritage] Equal To 1 (the corresponding cb_heritage field for Gold)
Action:
Enable usergroup Gold

This didn't work either. It seems that the "Query" on CB Actions is not executing for me, I don't know what I'm missing?

I can't think of anything else other than running an external cron to push the kunena rank value to the cb_heritage value.

Thank you,

Tomás

You'd use a CB Query Field to query for whatever value you need then you'd condition against it. In this case you need the raw rank id from Kunena so probably the below.

I tested in the CB Auto Actions with this Query in the Action tab and setting with

Do not directly insert into _user_usergroup_map. Use the usergroup action which properly uses Joomla API to adjust usergroups.

Now I get it! I thought I had installed CB Query Field, but I had't done so in my test site.

Works like a charm.

I set my cb_heritage field to be a Query field and entered the query as you wrote it. I just rolled back my Gold and Platinum Active groups in CB Auto Actions to condition against cb_heritage. That was it.

Now I can automatically grant elevated access based on rank, posts, karma, thank-yous, or basically any filed from any component. This is great.

The problem I had before was that when a subscription (CB Subs) expired, if I had granted that specific user elevated access then they would not be blocked from access because of the extra access group assigned.

Now by automatically removing the extra group on expiration, and re-assigning it on renewal or new plan registration, the elevated access works automatically.

Thank you!
