Hi, I suspect you might be misunderstanding how a "special group" works in DSpace. When using that "specialgroup" setting, a user will be added to that group *only while logged in*. So, they are a temporary member of that group _only for their logged in session_. They will never appear in the Group as a real member, because special groups are used only during your authenticated session.
So, to test this is working, you'd want to simply login & verify that your "Profile" shows that you are a member of the "new" group (it should be in your list of all groups you are a member of). However, if you browse to that "new" group as an Admin, you'll never see yourself listed there. Hopefully this helps explain DSpace's behavior with regards to "special groups".
