Hi,

I'm trying to automatically create Collections for each user that I register. I haven't quite been able to figure out how to do this.

If I add the following code to the end of my register.cpy:

>context.portal_factory.createObject(id='collection_for_'+username, type_name='Topic')

it takes me to the TTW Collection creation page, but this isn't really what I want.

Alternatively I've tried calling another script from register.cpy where I have the following:

>##Python Script (addCollection)
>##parameters=user=None

>pf = context.portal_factory

>member = pm.getMemberById(user)
>id='collection_for_'+member

>mytopic = pf.createObject(id=id,type_name='Topic')
>mytopic.addIndex(friendlyName='Collection for '+fullname, description='Automatically refreshing folder with all content tagged for '+fullname, enabled='True', criteria='user')
>pf.doCreate(mytopic,id)

return mytopic


This gives me the following error:
Exception Type          AttributeError
Exception Value         'str' object has no attribute 'addIndex'

which implies that mytopic was created as a string, not a collection. Any ideas on how I might fix this, or if it's even possible to do what I'm trying?

Thanks very much,
Brayton
