Perhaps it could help if I outline the steps:
1. User B > Profile > Manage Connections> User A > Type > "Judge"
2. query field cb_connectiontypes queries whether the user type = Judge (screeenshot 1)
3. "Judge User Group" Auto Action is INTENDED to assign User A to Judge User Group (screenshot 2)
Triggers: onDuringLogin,onAfterLogin,onBeforeLogin (JUST TRYING TO GET ONE TO WORK)
4. User A logs in and does not see the Judge menu item. Yes in the backend they are Usergroup Judge. (screenshot 3)
5. User A logs out, and logs back in and now can see the Judge menu item (screenshot 4)
Thanks for your help.
