Hello,

Sorry for the next issue adding. I just think it will be good to inform you.
When there is more than one Auto Group set (for example, two profile fields), error is shown with debuging on
"Exception encountered in event observer '\local_autogroup\event_handler::user_updated': This ID number is already in use".

Backtrace:
line 125 of /local/autogroup/classes/domain/group.php: call to groups_create_group()

Steps to reproduce:

1. Navigate to course and open auto groups (Course -> users -> groups -> auto groups)
2. Click create new group set and pick any profile field
3. Select only student as a role and save changes
4. Repeat steps 2-3 just to add another auto-group with different profile field
5. Navigate to users enrolled to that course and change their profile fields from step 2 or 4

Group will be created well with user enrolled, error shown does not interrupt plugin.

Best regards,

Thanks for reporting this issue. I was able to reproduce it.
I’ll try to look at it but if in the meantime you already fixed it do not hesitate to fill a PR. :)

Asides from the error message, which should be fixed at some point, this does not actually stop the plugin from working as far as I can tell.
