Change user group in frontend was created by Andromeda57
Is it possible that mods or admins can change the user group of a user in frontend?

ACL management is backend only. Only way to do it on frontend is I guess try to force something using CB Auto Actions.

Ok, thanks for your answer.

We now just try it with the help of cb subs... Is it possible that the mods / admins can see and change the abonnement of a user in frontend, but the user can not do this? This would be very good....

I don't know what an "abonnement" is so I've no idea what you're asking, sorry. Do you mean change the users subscription, but the user can't change it? You can't give a subscription from frontend like you can on backend. Frontend still goes through the purchase process unless I guess if you make the plans free.

You could have a CB field that's on a tab accessible to your moderators only or has edit access set to moderators only using CB Privacy. Then act on after update user trigger and condition off that field to give the user a usergroup if you really need this for frontend.

Ok, this seems to be the right way.. But couldn't make it work...

We have a field "cb_field" with values "yes" and "no"... When "yes", the user should be add to a special group...

We have set usergroup, on after update user, the condition for the field and the action... But user is not added to the group after a moderator changes the field in the user's profile to yes.. ?? Perhaps we have error in condition or so? In condition we have: "cb_field is yes" .. ??

Usually the error is in the condition. Many forget they need to supply an actual substitution. So you need to have the below for example.

[FIELD_NAME] Equal To yes

However, "yes" is a language string. So be sure the Yes|No selector is set to No so it doesn't try to pass through translations as it could result in your condition failing. The below is the common mistake people make configuring conditions.

FIELD_NAME Equal To yes

That will never match as it's literally comparing the string "FIELD_NAME" to "yes". The trigger you should be using exactly is: onAfterUserUpdate
