erc Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Title pretty much says it all. I'd like to be able to make certain custom profile fields available only to specific member groups. I'm not sure how much interest there is for such a feature, but I figure I'd put it out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IALPA Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Yep. I'll bite, I'd like that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JmactheAttack Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 This addition to the profile fields feature would certainly be great for large forums who host lots of individual sub-communities. I'm definitely for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erc Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 To explain further, I would personally use such a feature to build a community where there are distinct types of users. For example, the community might provide a place to connect buyers and sellers of a specific type of good or service. The sellers might have full profiles and examples of work, while the buyers would have no need for such a detailed profile. It would be useful in any case where there are distinct types of users with different profile needs.JomSocial is an example of software that includes this feature, but I would love to be able to switch from Joomla/JomSocial to Invision Power, which otherwise has much more robust community features.

Rimi Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I don't know if I'd use it but it definitely seems like a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nysander Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 this is good proposal, for me this should also make possibility to block certain fields from being filled if member is not in choosen group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiga Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Probably would never use it, but it is a good idea nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
