Post subject: Group Sign Up
I have been experimenting with mdchannel. I created a new subdomain at http://mariealline.footprints-online.com and have made it into a personal site with different channels for my different interests. What I would like to do is have site members sign up for which channels they would like to belong to. The family channel I want only accessable to family members but the other channels, (Westies, HTML Stationery and Web Building) I want people to sign up for or join. I do not want members to have access to channels they have not joined. Kind of like Yahoo! Groups where you have to join a group and be approved before being accepted. How can I accomplish this?
Thanks,
Marie Alline
P.S. Can't wait for the forum thing to come out! Looks like you've just about got it.

Hi Marie,
This feature is in my roadmap, just need some free time to work on. For a moment there are 2 options:
First, go to your config settings and change the 'allow user to change channel' to no. Then remove all channel links from your theme templates. With this option your user's group will not able to move between channels.
Second option, open the modules/NS-Your_Account/user/modules/changechannel.php and find the line 47 => $cnlGroupAdmins = array('2','3','4'); add any group id which you want to be disabled from change channel dropdown list. For i.e $cnlGroupAdmins = array('2','3','4','5','6','7');
