K. T. Walrus Posted October 4, 2004 Share Posted October 4, 2004 I went to edit the birthday for one of my members and I couldn't find any birthday editing support in the Admin CP. Is this just missing? I went to PhpMyAdmin and made the change, but it seems to me that all profile fields should be editable by the board admin.

bigreddog Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I also noticed this and found it quite surprising. The PhpMyAdmin route was the only option to make the change and that can get pretty time consuming. Can we do something about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Management Matt Posted October 12, 2004 Management Share Posted October 12, 2004 This is not a bug in IPB but is more of a feature suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why Two Kay Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 I would like the ability to do this, because some member LIE about their age and it really annoys me when it says they are 21, when they are only 19. :-" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutty Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 I would like the ability to do this, because some member LIE about their age and it really annoys me when it says they are 21, when they are only 19. :-" <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So, what's to stop them from changing it back again? I really can't see any reason an admin should need to change the information a member enters in their own birthday field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 Some forums are modded to not allow the member to change their dob once they have finished signing up. It'd just be an easier way to modify it. It's ease of use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonawojo Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 And a feature suggestion I agree with. :thumbsup:<{POST_SNAPBACK}> :thumbsup: As far as not allowing them to change it, that is better left as a Mod. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why Two Kay Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 :thumbsup: As far as not allowing them to change it, that is better left as a Mod. ;)<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, I just take the option out of the UserCP. But there is no way for ME to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I think it's safe to say that many Admins would prefer to be able to edit anything/everything of a members account, including dob's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myr Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Good idea. More control over profile options (like requiring different fields without making them custom fields) would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
