Parent groups and groups

[Migrated From Jforum.net]

I am confused regarding users and groups.

if i have a parent group set up for subgroups, and i assign a user to a subgroup, when i come back to re-assign the same user, nothing is selected from the list.
If i assign a user to a parent group, when i come back to re-assign the same user, the parent and all subgroups are selected.

However if i do a search by group, the user is found in the correct group.

Is this a bug?

Also, if i have several groups set up but they are all top level, if i am a newly registered user, what group do i get assigned to? Am i assigned to the most restricted group other than Anonymous?

Looks like a bug in the forum. You can register the bug at http://www.jforum.net/jira

By default, all new users are set to the "General" group. You can change that in the SystemGlobals.properties file, key "defaultGroupId"
