hi guys,
does anyone know the proper query to move users who have both X posts and have been registered for Y days from their current user group to a new one?
I have this one which moves users from one group to a new group with a certain amount of posts, but not any type of time they've been registered on the forum:
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `usergroup` = 'X' WHERE `usergroup` = 'Y' AND `postnum` > 'Z'
I believe the user promotions task can do this, it probably would be the best way to do it.

that'll probably do it, too. thanks.
Group promotions will only promote them if they log in.

that might be a good point. in that case, is there a query I can run to achieve this to move a bulk of the users and just rely on the group promotion to do the work after that?
I don't think login is necessary for group promotions? A visitor should be present on site for task to initiate. Although I'm not sure as I've never used it.
I have used group promotions on a lot of my sites. And if I set group promotions and then run them. it won't effect any of them until they log in.
I'm not exactly sure when it's supposed to run, but I set up the group promotion about 4 hours ago and it's only moved 1 user so far. There's almost 1,600 users in the 1 group, and I'm guessing at least 1,200-1,300 of them should get moved to this new group.
bumping this.
I set up the group promotion and it's only moved 4 users in almost a week when it should of moved about 1,200 users.
To update users that have been registered at least N units of M
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `usergroup` = 'X' WHERE `usergroup` = 'Y' AND `postnum` > 'Z' AND TIMESTAMPDIFF(M, NOW(), FROM_UNIXTIME(`regdate`)) >= N
M can be any of FRAC_SECOND, SECOND, MINUTE, HOUR, DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, or YEAR.
example, registered at least 5 months
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `usergroup` = 'X' WHERE `usergroup` = 'Y' AND `postnum` > 'Z' AND TIMESTAMPDIFF(MONTH, NOW(), FROM_UNIXTIME(`regdate`)) >= 5
