Change User Group Via PHP
I don’t think the XenForo Class Proxy works properly when you’re loading classes from outside XenForo. I had an issue similar to this when working on something a couple weeks ago. Perhaps @Chris D can chime in on this?
The specific issue I had was with DataWriter classes extending XenForo_DataWriter_User not running when I called XenForo_DataWriter_User from outside of XenForo while using Kotomi.

I can’t speak on behalf of how the Kotomi bridge works, but generally there should be no problem with XF accessing extended classes.
This is pretty much all you need to instantiate XF and have access to pretty much everything (at the code level, at least):
setupAutoloader($fileDir . '/library'); XenForo_Application::initialize($fileDir . '/library', $fileDir); XenForo_Application::set('page_start_time', $startTime); $dependencies = new XenForo_Dependencies_Public(); $dependencies->preLoadData(); $visitor = XenForo_Visitor::getInstance(); $user_id = $visitor->getUserId(); $userModel = XenForo_Model::create('XenForo_Model_User'); $userModel->removeUserGroupChange($user_id, 'RANDOM_STRING'); $userModel->addUserGroupChange($user_id, 'RANDOM_STRING', 10);Jake B.

'/library/XenForo/Autoloader.php'); XenForo_Autoloader::getInstance()->setupAutoloader($fileDir . '/library'); XenForo_Application::initialize($fileDir . '/library', $fileDir); XenForo_Session::startPublicSession();and when I created a DataWriter using XenForo_DataWriter::create(‘XenForo_DataWriter_User’) it did not load any of the classes that extend XenForo_DataWriter_User, so even if I put a die; in _preSave() or _getFields() that never happened, it continued to try to save the user, but missing any custom fields added by add-ons.
I’ll try to get more details on this issue when I have some time, but it seems like the XF Class Proxy doesn’t actually do anything when it’s called from outside of XenForo, which seemed odd.

Is it possible to change the secondary_group_ids with one mysql command like (this works fine in vbulletion for secondary_group; but work not in xenforo):
UPDATE xf_user SET secondary_group_ids= secondary_group_ids+ 23 WHERE NOT (secondary_group_ids & 23);

I don’t know how it has to be done back in 2012, when Chris offered the solution above. But in most recent versions of XenForo the programatic addition (or removal) of a user group to a user account is very easy (assuming we are in a controller):
$userModel = XenForo_Model::create('XenForo_Model_User'); $userModel->addUserGroupChange($userId, 'any_id_you_like', $groupId); $userModel->removeUserGroupChange($userId, 'any_id_you_like');Regarding your comments @Dan Allen :
It won’t get better. Modern software is object orientated and follows the MVC model and data writers. It makes it in fact easier to expand the code and the create large applications with a very small bug rate (like XenForo).
External login and registration is also very easy to implement in an add-on. Thanks to MVC and data writers. you should get comfortable with it.
@HWS, Would it be reasonable to adapt what you have provided to use on a bulk update user group assignments? I’ve been advised there are warranty and support implications, basically, if it gets messed up it cannot be supported by XF and it is strongly discouraged by XF.
I also am wondering if you can comment on an observation I have seen posted and seen myself, which is an apparent lack of working examples that can make understanding the technology easier. In other words, since it is simple and easy to implement external login, where are the several examples available for download and if they are not available that way, why not? It seems common enough to be able to find working examples of all kinds of code, XF modifications not packaged as addons being an exception.
How to change PHP-User/Group from Root|Root to Nobody|Nogroup?
When using TYPO3, you can configure which group should be set for created or uploaded files. You have to set the following configuration variable.
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['BE']['createGroup'] = 'nogroup'; However, this only works for uploads that are actually handled by the TYPO3 api. Have a look at
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::upload_copy_move() to get an impression on how TYPO3 handles file uploads.
