Willie Seabrook	Thursday 22 January 2004 4:43:59 am I found that programatically, for each group that you want to add the user to, you publish the user there (duh) by creating a node assignment and a ezcontentobject tree entry. However, you must be sure to only make one group the main node. So if group 1 folder node id is 777 and group 2 folder node id is 888 first add a node assignment and a contentobject tree entry with main_node =1 then for the second group do the same but with main_node =0 and the same for every other group that you wish to publish to.

Tore Skobba	Thursday 22 January 2004 5:45:51 am hmmm I might understand you wrong here, but I had a somewhat similar problem I think. My solution was to have two user groups (User A and User B), then make roles for each (Role A and Role B). Then I assigned User A to Role A, while User B was assigned to Role A and Role B.

Yes willie you are right...
you can do that because groups and users are just content objects like any other object

SO they follow the rules for the objects

one main node
multiple others

each node has a parent
