On the code part this is the code:

function ShowForm(){
$get = DataObject::get_one('UserDefinedForm', "URLSegment = 'newsletter'");
return new UserDefinedForm_Controller($get);
}

On the template part this is the code:

<% control ShowForm %>
<tr>
<td>
$Showform.Content
$Showform.Form
</td>
</tr>
<% end_control %>

Ok so you are using the User Defined Form? If so you should raise this under the modules section. If you were using a regular form...

//create or find Member dataobject $doMember

      // Add the member to group. (Check if it exists first)
      if($group = DataObject::get_one('Group', "Code = 'Newsletter'"))
      {
           $doMember->Groups()->add($group);
      }

.. this is the bit of code that finds the security group 'Newsletter' and then adds the member to it.

Hope this helps,

Barry
