XF 2.1 Apply a usergroup for new users?

Is there any way to add a usegroup on registration?

I wish to turn off private messaging for anyone new, so either add this user group when they register or via a user promotion.

But am I right in thinking it's not possible to this with the core 2.1?

Thanks

Remove the conversation permission for the Registered user group.

Create a new user group and a promotion with the relevant criteria (e.g. 10 posts, registered for a week) to allow conversations.

There is no need. On registration they will be in registered group, just set permissions for that how you want, ie no conversations.

and yes, use a promotion so after x posts they get a secondary group that allows conversations

Perfect, I knew there would be a way to do this, but the easy solution eluded me :LOL:
