Social Groups..? - Drive Thru Online - Support

Does this just alter the Social Groups, or is it completely seperate.?

Also if i have some groups already set up on my site, would they need to re-set up their group, & if they already have forums, would they need to do that over again & start fresh.?

Thanks

The Social Group functionality in vBulletin is not used. We have discussed adding an entry in a later version if there is a call from our clients.

The groups on the site already do not need to be re-setup. When provisioning the club simply note the forum ID number and enter that via the Manage Clubs interface.

From our help documents

Quote:

Forum ID

If the club has a forum on the site enter the Forum ID number. To determine the Forum ID number, in the Admin CP navigate to Forums and Moderators=>Forum Manager. Select the forum either by clicking on the name in the Forum column or selecting Edit Forum in Controls drop-down list and clicking Go. The ID number will be displayed in the Title Bar. e.g. Forum: Forum Name (id: x). Optional Field, however recommended if the club desires a Calendar and/or Marketplace forum.

I would be delighted to see Social Groups integration. Creating a club creates a Social Group and the entry links to that group.
