How to question about newusergroup with menu for that specific group

[nickbh]

I searched the forums related to menu manager and group manager, but cannot seem to get the answer to how can I create a new usergroup and then assign a new menu for that specific group without touching or adding new user group to default user group.

I am attaching images to basically try to explain what I am trying to achieve.
1. I create a group using a group manager - copied the default user group and named it faxusergrp. (image 001)
2. I created menu using a reload default and changed some menu items for that group. (image 002)
3. I created a user named faxuser and assigned it to a faxusergrp. (image 003)
4. how do i tie faxmenu to faxusergrp?
5. only way I can get any changes is to add faxusergrp to default user group's menu items that I want.
a. when you read the group manager description/explanation,

"Groups are a logical organization of users. Groups are assigned permissions. Users inherit permissions from the group or groups they are assigned to. The default groups are global and used across all domains. A group relevant to one domain may be created and assigned to a single domain."​

6. When I log in as user faxuser, i do not see changes (image 004)

Can someone point me to solutions or any hints that would allow me to do this.

Thanks. in advance and appreciate any help.

Menus are assigned at the domain level, you can't have different menus for groups because think what may happen if you had two groups with different menus and a user was a member of both!

You can change the way a menu looks by only showing items to certain groups:

Thank you for the reply I will reconsider the organization of the menu/group. As to the question about a user with 2 memberships, would it not be the case that the priority would be set by the level value?

would it not be the case that the priority would be set by the level value?

The level is just an authority value.

thank you for your help in making things clear.

For completeness, and I hope it doesn't confuse things, I thought I would post my Fax User setup since that seems to be what you are trying to do.
Group Manager menu

Permissions on that same page leeds you to the menu items the user can view. Mine might not be exactly right, but works for me.


I also granted some CDR stuff but I don't think that is needed.
Then what menu to show the group. Everyone needs the Home section or they can't even log out.
