Assigning dedicated user group to CB

Assigning dedicated user group to CB was created by alumnifreudenhain
Hello!

I have to set up an alumni network, so I installed Community Builder and started testing with two dummy users. However, all these users are shown in Joomla user management as "registered". I would prefer creating a subgroup to "registered" called "alumni" and assign all registrations through CB to this group.
How can I do that?

Thanks for helping a newbie :)

You can certainly do this manually from backend on a user by user basis.

If you want all new registrations to automatically be assigned to a specific Joomla ACL group, then change the Joomla parameter. On Joomla 3.3.3 this parameter is set from your Joomla -> Users -> User Manager -> Options -> COmponent -> New User Registration Group parameter.

CB will honor it.

Thanks for your quick reply!
I'm running Joomla 2.5, but it should be the same. Is there anything else to adjust?

Nope - make changes and test.
