Bug #2436

J1.6: get_user_group_id not returning top most gid
Description
Anywhere get_user_group_id is used within Joomla 1.6 is not returning the top most GID. This causes for example someone that is in a custom group of Group 1 AND Registered always returns as Registered instead of Group 1 (as seen in database in _users).

we need to have same keys implemented for all CMS types.
Can you please submit a new patch that is also valid for all joomla 1.0,1.5 and Mambos 4.5 and 4.6 ?

Only Joomla 1.6 (and greater) has a different structure which is covered with if ( checkJversion() >= 2 ) { and the } else { taking care of j1.5, j1.0, and mambo.

Patch applied in r1490.
Agree with the fix for the bug.
But don't understand the need for the change in mapGroupNamesToValues() :
Do we have uses of Root, Public and Backend in joomla < 1.6 ?

Ah, understood where it is. It is now used in fix of #2437 .
However, in the way it is used to fix #2437, it might fail on joomla 1.6. So the new keys Root, Public and Backend need to be added in joomla < 1.6, but then ignored properly in the output.
r1491 implements that regression fix. And allows to close this bug.
