I get this message whenever I attempt to add a user to a group or make a user the manager of a group.

Sorry, but an error occurred. If you are unsure about how to solve this error you can contact the system administrator.

You either did not select any usernames, or the names you entered were invalid.

You'll have to excuse my ignorance, never used this feature. I created a test group and member but see no way of adding him to the group this way

OK, I found it and from what I can see, the group needs to be set to Accepting Members, the Member needs to apply to be added and they will show in a list. The manager can then add or deny their request.

The funny thing is the command works and it adds them to the managers list, but it still throws up the

I think I've located it. I tried to change it to work but I still get the error.

Filename: Members.pl

Original Code (where I believe the error is coming from):

Code
	foreach(split(',',$type)) {
		GetMemberID($_);

		if($memberid{$_}{'sn'} eq '') { $_ = FindUsername($_); GetMemberID($_); }

		if($memberid{$_}{'sn'} eq '' || ($username ne $_ && $manager{$_} && !$members{'Administrator',$username})) { next; }
		$chosen{$_} = 1;
		$addgroup .= "$_,";
	}
	$addgroup =~ s/,\Z//g;
	if($addgroup eq '' || ($FORM{'manage'} && !$members{'Administrator',$username})) { error($memtext[214]); }


I figured since my main admin group is not called "Administrator", I would just replace it with "High Admin" (which is the name of the admins on the forum).

Here is my change:

Code
	foreach(split(',',$type)) {
		GetMemberID($_);

		if($memberid{$_}{'sn'} eq '') { $_ = FindUsername($_); GetMemberID($_); }

		if($memberid{$_}{'sn'} eq '' || ($username ne $_ && $manager{$_} && !$members{'High Admin',$username})) { next; }
		$chosen{$_} = 1;
		$addgroup .= "$_,";
	}
	$addgroup =~ s/,\Z//g;
	if($addgroup eq '' || ($FORM{'manage'} && !$members{'High Admin',$username})) { error($memtext[214]); }



I still get the error. That is the only place $memtext[214] (the error message) is in the Members.pl file. Does anyone have any suggestions?
