I need an automatic way to add users to a restricted access group. Could someone direct me to any plugins that are related to this kind of function?

When you get your licensed straightened out post in the appropriate forum and I'll be glad to help. There's actually a built in function for this, no mods needed.

Thanks Joe. I don't plan to get a license until I have figured out if this can work for me. What is the build in function that would allow me to do this? I checked out the forum demo and the documentation, and communicated back and forth with a tech support via email, and haven't heard about this kind of thing...

It's called "Public Usergroups" - In your User Control Panel (User CP) there is a section called "Group Memberships" and admins can specify usergroups which anyone can join... The member joins or leaves the group as they see fit. You can setup the public usergroups to any rights/restrictions as any other usergroup...

If that's what you mean. Otherwise is people buy subscriptions they will also be automatically moved to a usergroup you specify.

Here's what I'm wanting to do: I have a custom-coded chat community site that currently uses phpBB as the forum, and login database. The rest of the site uses the forum's login system, by using a simple include to see if someone is logged into the forum and using the forum's user data if so. In phpBB the code is a little longer, but with SMF the code is a one-line include to do this.
