Thanks Stephen,

I should of looked there, I was scanning the recipe pages as they had seemingly relevant articles.

Hi,

when you're dealing with a condition that can contain more than one value (e.g. you can be a member of several groups), the != operator does not act in the way you might expect.

What it does is tests for != against every member of the set, e.g. group != foo OR group != bar OR group != wombat
If you think about that hard enough you realise that there's no value that can actually succeed.

A better way in JomGenius is to do this:

if ($core_genius->check("none of groups = Portfolio")) return 167;

... where "none of" means that none of the items on the left equals the item on the right.

Alternatively you can just negate the entire condition:

if ( ! $core_genius->check("groups = Portfolio")) return 167;

Cheers,
Stephen
ps your e-mail address for this forum always bounces. Can you update your address on here, or PM it to me and I'll update it for you?

Ooops, really sorry about the message. I've been having a terrible time with spam account registrations, and it looks like I set up that rule a bit too tightly.

Fixed now - and your e-mail and handle should be changed now (though old one is still showing above - oh well).

Thanks,
Stephen
