December 12, 20195 yr Author What's New in Version 2.2.2: Hide group header when there are ano fileds (they're not visible to the browsing member) under the group.
January 9, 20205 yr This plugin doesn't seem to do what it says it does at least from hours of back and forth testing. Currently on 4.4.x. Example: Field Name: What is the weather like by you? Field Type: Select box. Options: Cool, Warm, Hot Member can edit value? Yes. Allowed Groups: Group A Now based on that and the wording: "Only users from selected groups will be able to fill this field ". That says in our mind that only Group A will be able to make a selection in their profile. However anyone from Group B, Group C, New Users, etc etc can go into their profile and make a selection. These other groups have no permissions at all and are not Admins/Mods. This seems to defeat the purpose of what was said above with only users from selected groups will be able to fill this field. Ideas on what's wrong here? Bug Found: Additionally if a person in this case selects Cool in the drop down. Then decides they don't want to select anything a bit later now get a 0 instead of it just disappearing from their profile.

Ideas on what's wrong here? Make sure you’ve selected properly the groups. Disable any other plugin that changes profile fields behavior, if you have one, to discard any kind of conflict. I have a couple of boards based in profile information that are using this in 4.4.9.2 and didn’t report any error; they always do. Anyway, I’m in the middle of a moving house and won’t be able to take a look at this at least until tomorrow. 4 hours ago, ForumDefender said: Bug Found: Additionally if a person in this case selects Cool in the drop down.

It doesn’t care which field type it is or what the user selects on it. Disable the plugin and test the same without it. I don’t think it’s related.

Found the issue and it seems that the permissions doesn't work correctly on older versions of 4.4.x. Once upgraded to 4.4.9 everything worked. As for the 0 bug you're right that's something on our end as well, we have no idea what as its not being put there by a plugin but must be a theme thing or something. Thank you and sorry to bother, good luck in your house move!

Anyway, the new one adds and removes columns properly. So drop the column in your database and install this new one. Send a PM if you need help with it.
September 14, 20204 yr Hi Adriano, i'm still on 4.4 and purchased the Plugin a few minutes ago. As described Version 2.2.2 should be compatible with 4.4 but... i'm unable to download the previous version 🙂 Chris

November 30, 20204 yr Hi Adriano, This problem occurred before (pls see error message attached), went away, and then has come back again just now. I'm on IPS 4.5 and version 2.3.0 of the plug in. The only other app or plug in I have which affects profile fields is Profile Tabs Organizer but that is disabled. Thanks, JP

I'm on IPS 4.5 and version 2.3.0 of the plug in. How to reproduce? Simply by going to the search form? Which permissions you have for the field? Not visible to users, etc? Need more information to take a look.
November 30, 20204 yr Thanks, Adriano. I also have the error message appearing in Members on the Admin CP (screenshot attached). I use a lot of custom fields with different permissions for various groups of fields so it's complex. Would it be a good idea to temporarily set you up as an admin?

I, for example, can’t reproduce none of this. So you will have to tell me which kind of configuration you have so I can try to reproduce. Disable all fields. Enabled one. Test. Ok? Next, etc. I don’t think this is something I must do in your board. I don’t know what kind of information you don’t want to show to your members.

July 1, 20213 yr Hi @Adriano Faria, Is this a correct plugin for this feature request here? Thank for any help ☺️
July 1, 20213 yr Author No, this plugin does nothing in registration screen. Drop a message if you want me to make a custom resource to accomplish that.
July 15, 20213 yr When I enable PHP version 7.4.16 on my site this app works fine when I click on the following: When I enable PHP version 8.0.3 on my site this app doesn't work: If I disable app while running PHP version 8.0.3 I am able to navigate to the Profiles Screen. This seems to indicate that this app isn't fully compatible with PHP 8.0.3. I cleared the system cache after switching between PHP versions. No errors being generated in System or Error Logs. Please investigate, Thanks... Edited July 15, 20213 yr by Chris Anderson
July 15, 20213 yr Author I’ll retest it. @Chris Anderson, fix submitted to marketplace. Let me know if you have FTP access to your server, then I'll provide a quick fix via private message. Edited July 15, 20213 yr by Adriano Faria
February 2, 20222 yr Would your plugin solve my problem? My problem (link below) is that I want Admin/Moderators to be able to see and edit a Profile Field and edit it through a members Profile page, but at the same time NOT allow a member to see NOR edit the Profile Field.

I see you’re already using it. Thank you. 👍
December 9, 20222 yr The reason I bought this is to hide "About me" profile spam. A lot of spammers will register an account and then fill in the about me section of their profile with some meaningless spam and a URL. These links all over our website to low-quality domains probably hurt our SEO. I disallowed general members from editing the profile field in the settings, so that only paying customers can use it. However, the thousands of existing spam profiles are still appearing on our site. Is there any way to hide these without deleting all user "About me" fields? Edited December 9, 20222 yr by Interferon
December 9, 20222 yr Author You can control who can view but if you’re allowing everyone to view and they filled it before you install the plugin and set which groups can use it, obviously they will show for those who can view. Your only option is to delete their content.
