    Posted: 23 May 2008 at 2:09pm
Hi Guys,

I am using the API and it is working really well so thank-you for that.
What I am trying to do is giving me a bit of grief.

The members of my site sometimes have different access levels to my site and I would like to show this on the forum in the form of a custom title I thought ?

I was just wondering if you could let me know how I could go about this either via the API or directly modying the database ?

Which API are you using. The simple existing members API or the more powerful HTTP XML API?

I am using the simple one, but I could move to the more powerful one ?

If you use the HTTP XML API there is an CreateNewMember action which allows you to create a new member with allot more details such as being able to set the members group, member title, etc.

You could still use both API's together keeping your existing system, but also use the HTTP XML API to create the new members so you can more customise the member creation.

hmm, I guess I have an old version as the version I have does not contain that API.
The only problem is I have made so many modifications :(

Where in the database is the title specified ? As I think that will be easier

I think it's called 'member_title' in tblAuthor

The HttpAPI was introduced in 9.06 last November, but should work with older versions of 9.x if you grab the HttpAPI.asp file from the latest download.
