HikaSerial have a consumption plugin called "group consumer" ; it allows to affect a user group to a logged user when he used a specific serial. But once the serial will be used, he couldn't be used again. Otherwise, you can see to use a user custom field which will be display during the registration and then, using a little custom plugin, you can change the user group after the user creation (depending the content of the custom field). So, it would be more something like a pass-code to unlock the user group. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.

So "custom plugin" means that I have to find someone to code that plugin?

So with HikaSerial it is possible to 1) generate a set of serials that adds a user to a specific group when he enters the serial 2) hand out serials of package 1 to future user group 1 members 3) hand out serials of package 2 to futer user group 2 members ... and so on 4) the user registers and once he has done this, he can enter the serial to be added to a specific user group 5) the user will stay in this user group when he logs out and in again Is this how HikaSerial can work?
