According to the article, “xbt-tracker-frontend, http://www.visigod.com/xbt-tracker-frontend”, XBT Tracker is going to provide following functionality;

<- Forum Integration (IPB, Vbulletin, PHPBB, SMFv1, SMFv2) ->

In terms of using SMFv1, however, we may have a problem to distinguish groups into ‘general-group’ and ‘posts-group’

In other words, one user may belong to two different groups.

For example, from a user table, ‘smf_members’, two columns (ID_GROUP and ID_POST_GROUP) are used to classify the user group.

In SMF, ID_GROUP==X is for administrators and Moderators, and ID_GROUP==0 is for general users specified by ID_POST_GROUP.

However, in SMF-Group-table, ‘smf_membergroups’, we have definitions for a group-name which starts from ‘one’, rather than ‘zero’.

Moreover, XBTTF does not define ‘zero’, so it makes all users as an administrator by referencing the value of ‘smf_membergroups’ set ‘one’.

For now, we should disable Forum Integration functionality.

In summary,

using ID_GROUP: ‘zero’ value cannot be recognized, so all users become an administrator.

using ID_POST_GROUP: unabled to manage group setting, because all groups are defined by the number of articles.

Thank you.

Please see the table.

When you enable the forum integration you should define your default group in the parameters. By default its 1 (IPB) but you can select from the dropdown list the usergroup you would like to use.

I'll try to post a more detailed information about it.

I've looked at your site and forums and it seems all fine.

In the site backend (administration area), on the torrent parameters you have selected the default usergroup is the "newbie" which is ID_GROUP 4.

I still don't understand why do you refer that users in group 0 are being treated as administrators.

Also, I've fixed the default user group and will release a new version very soon.

I will make some tests with smf during the weekend and report back with it.

Yes. then, Can't setting moderator. ; )

Currently I was set the config for ID_POST_GROUP.

Please change the parameter ID_POST_GROUP to ID_GROUP and Import.

Okay. I am considering abandon the SMF.

Just, wait. Don't be worry.
