when member management fails, it invariably is that the user doesn't belong to ANY group..
there is a nested query in these forums that searches for users with NO GROUP assigned and assigns them to at least ONE group (of your choosing)..
i think it's been pasted a coupla times.. Yarp did it once and i know i did a nested version at some point..
when you find that thread, just paste the query in your cpanel, db tools, sql query and execute it...
i think that is your problem, even though your config NOW has a default group for new users..
