    uSync Member Groups

    uSync
    Umbraco 7

    Hi, am I missing something? How can I enable Member Group sync? It seems my coworkers get at least one, but I dont know why?

    Are people using Member Types to set auth permission logic?

    Thanks Sean

    Hi Sean

    Apparently, I don't think you can sync either member group nor member. My workaround has to create customer ApplicationEventHandler to initialize default member groups.

    Below is my currently solution plugged in my ApplicationEventHandler. I hope this may help. 

    private void InitializeMemberGroups(UmbracoApplicationBase umbracoApplication, ApplicationContext applicationContext)
    {
        string[] groups = new[] { <your group names> };

        var existGroups = applicationContext.Services.MemberGroupService.GetAll().Select(x => x.Name).ToList();

        var newGroups = groups.Except(existGroups);

        foreach (var newGroup in newGroups)
        {
            applicationContext.Services.MemberGroupService.Save(new MemberGroup { Name = newGroup });
        }
    }

    Thank you so much, can't get this running with latest umbraco, but hopefully I can figure it out. I get the concept. :)

    Much appreciated!

    Btw, my solution was a bit easier. Hopefully I'm not doing anything crazy (c# is not my main language),

    string[] groups = new[] { "Group 1", "Group 2", "Group 3" };

var memberService = applicationContext.Services.MemberService;
    foreach(var group in groups) { 
        memberService.AddRole(group);
    }

    It seems that adding roles that already exist is handled by the service (hopefully wont bloat database with multiple groups).

    You're welcome. Glad to hear it helps.

    The sample code I provided is to create member groups , I have another function running after this to initiate some default members, and assign them to the member groups created by previous sample code.

    Happy coding :)
