Missing Features? IPB 4.1.x

[ucjohn]

Missing Features:

1) Ability to hide birthdays / e-mails (From other people viewing)

2) Various group permissions that 3.4.8 had but were removed... I love the performance updates etc.. But Permission set are very important.

@Matt  I remeber members had permissions to hide birthday's at there free will or display them. Also on registration having the ability to let people insert there age incase they're "Under Age"

Like 13 and under not allowing them to register just tossing these idea's out at you to see what your take is on them. It would be nice to have simple permission things like that in the structure instead of adding more plugins to do it..

If you don't want the birthday shown you just don't enter it. What would be the point of entering your birthday just to hide it? So only you see it? The software does not require you enter it, so if you don't want it to show you simply don't enter it. If you don't want the year to show, you don't enter the year. There is no point in hiding anything unless it is required by the software. It's like any other optional field.

If IPS ever allows them to be required then yes, members should be able to hide entire birthday or year.
