Difference between add_user and insert_user hooks?

Hi guys/gals,

Does anyone happen to know what the difference is between the add_user hook, and the insert_user one?

TIA

add_user is called when $user_table->add() is called, which in Gossamer Forum happens only when adding a user via the admin panel. insert_user is called whenever a user is inserted, including adding a user via the admin (as ->add calls ->insert).

Thanks, I managed to dig up an old thread (for Wil), which gave me an idea on how to find the hooks. For anyone interested, these are the main ones I found;

admin/GForum/HTML/Forum.pm: 'display_forum'
admin/GForum/HTML/Forum.pm: 'form_user'
admin/GForum/HTML/Group.pm: 'display_group'
admin/GForum/HTML/Group.pm: 'group_form'
admin/GForum/HTML/User.pm: 'display_user'
admin/GForum/HTML/User.pm: 'form_user'
admin/GForum/HTML/Category.pm: 'display_category'
admin/GForum/HTML/Category.pm: 'form_user'
admin/GForum/Post/Write.pm: 'post_cant_attach'
admin/GForum/Forum.pm: 'forum_normalize'
admin/GForum/User.pm: 'user_normalize'
admin/GForum/Table/Forum.pm: 'add_forum'
admin/GForum/Table/Forum.pm: 'modify_forum'
admin/GForum/Table/Forum.pm: 'delete_forum'
admin/GForum/Table/Group.pm: 'add_group'
admin/GForum/Table/Group.pm: 'modify_group'
admin/GForum/Table/Group.pm: 'delete_group'
admin/GForum/Table/User.pm: 'add_user'
admin/GForum/Table/User.pm: 'insert_user'
admin/GForum/Table/User.pm: 'update_user'

admin/GForum/Online.pm: 'online_normalize'
admin/GForum/Message.pm: 'message_cant_attach'
admin/GForum/Message.pm: 'message_normalize'
admin/GForum.pm: 'do_func'

Its not definative.. but the ones I needed were there ... and the plugin is pretty much finished off now <G> Should hopefully have a release tomorrow, after I've got some feedback on how its working / any bugs.

Thanks for the description though, the definatly clears things up in my head :)

Cheers
