I know how much Facepunch hates DarkRP for some reason so I'll keep this short for my knowledge on LUA is all but fabulous.

hook.Add("PlayerDeath","1Mayor Auto demote",function(ply)
  if ply:Team() == TEAM_MAYOR then
    ply:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)
    PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER, "The President has been assassinated!" )
  else
  end
end)

I have that, and I would wish to make it search all players for another "job" and demote them to citizen, any help is appreciated.

EDIT: Hm, this is all what I typed.

I didn't realize that I typed my request wrong, I'm actually incredibly sorry about that; I was looking for when the mayor dies I want another job to be demoted as well, again, sorry, it was a late night when I posted this...

Do you mean demote them from their job to citizen when they die?

replace "TEAM_MAYOR" with the name of a different job, whichever one you'd like.

No point putting the "else" there if you don't put anything after it.

[lua]
for key, ply in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
if ply:GetClass() == "MAYOR" then
return ply;
end
end

GetClass returns the class of the entity, which is not going to be "MAYOR"

Try this:

local  GroupsToDemote = { TEAM_MAYOR, TEAM_WHATEVER, TEAM_WHATEVER2 } --Put the groups you'd like to be demoted in here. You can add as many as you'd like.

hook.Add("PlayerDeath","1Mayor Auto demote",function(ply)
	if ply:Team() == TEAM_MAYOR then
		PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER, "The President has been assassinated!" )
		for k, v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
			if table.HasValue( GroupsToDemote, v:Team() ) then
				v:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)
				v:ChatPrint( "You've lost your job due to the death of the President!" ) --This puts some text in each demoted players chat space to inform them of their demotion. You can change or remove it if you'd like.
			end
		end
	end
end)

according to the gmod wiki,

"v:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)"

should be

"v:ChangeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)"

I still didn't seem to change, not sure why.... It seems to be right...

[Mors]

hook.Add( "PlayerDeath", "MayorDemote", function( ply )
	if ply:Team() == TEAM_MAYOR then		
		PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER, "The President has been assassinated!" )
		ply:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,1)
		DarkRP.Log(ply:SteamName() .. " was killed and therefore demoted from President.",nil, Color(0, 190, 255))
	end
end)

This should work

Which, is basically the code you posted, actually.

Are you sure this is in the right file and/or is being loaded by the server?

How about this?

[aStonedPenguin]

hook.Add("PlayerDeath","DemoteMayor",function(v,k)
if (v:Team() == TEAM_MAYOR) then
v:ChangeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true);
for k, v in ipairs(player.GetAll()) do
v:PrintMessage(HUD_PRINTCENTER,"The mayor has died!");
end;
end;
end);

Add this to the bottom of your main.lua

[QUOTE=Professorg;42952372]It demoted me however kept my SS as SS.[/QUOTE]

So you would like to demote more than just the mayor?

[Professorg]

I just got Rocket Mania to make me one, here it is :)

 hook.Add("PlayerDeath","1Mayor Auto demote",function(ply)
  if ply:Team() == TEAM_MAYOR then
    ply:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)
    PrintMessage( HUD_PRINTCENTER, "The President has been assassinated!" )
for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
if v:Team() == TEAM_SECRETSERVICE then
v:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)
end
end
  else
  end
end)

I don't know why the ones you guys sent didn't work, maybe because
v:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,1)
should be
v:changeTeam(TEAM_CITIZEN,true)
??????

I have no idea :/
