Apfelstrudel Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Hi, in some forums (like ours) usergroups are something private and must not be published to members. Please remove any occurrences of this usergroup list from website parts the normal user can access. Or better, add a feature to enable/disable it. We don't want to show the people in which category we have set them.

Oh sorry, that's the ONLY way we have to list groups. You better edit the template to remove from your board. 4 minutes ago, Apfelstrudel said: Or better, add a feature to enable/disable it. That would be the right thing to do. But you are the only one in whole IPS4 history requesting this, so...

But you are the only one in whole IPS4 history requesting this, so... Are you sure? I heard something different. Doesn't matter. Anyway, we have usergroups for special users and we don't want to show them to the public. Maybe someone from the team can tell me where else the user can find a usergroup list. Would be great. I would apprecate some tipps what to remove in the templates.
Adriano Faria Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 You mean remove from the advanced member search form OR from the entire suite viewing, like posts, profiles, etc. ? 8 minutes ago, Apfelstrudel said: Are you sure? I heard something different. Doesn't matter. Yes. Resources like this or this (and there are a bunch that wasn't update to IPS4 yet) use the groups to show users. If I removing the group from the form, the core will still search via URL.
Apfelstrudel Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 I didn't request to remove the usergroup feature. No, of course not, this is essential. I just asked to remove all occurrences from the normal website where users can see the full list of avaiable usergroups the admin has created. Like in the advanced member search. Sorry for any misunderstandings.
Adriano Faria Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 Just now, Apfelstrudel said: I didn't request to remove the usergroup feature. No, of course not, this is essential. Yeah, I didn't mean that. I mean remove from viewing in whole suite.
Apfelstrudel Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 At the moment I just found one (member search, see screenshot). Do you know more occurrences? I don't talk about usergroup icons or tags (like in profiles or posts).
Adriano Faria Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 That what I was talking about. This is necessary because it is now the only way for us to list groups. You need to understand that you are the exception. Maybe a template edit or a plugin to remove it for you?
Management Lindy Posted December 29, 2015 Management Posted December 29, 2015 A more practical option may be a public or private usergroup flag on the user group settings. That's something we can consider in the future.

TLeM4 Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Hi everyone, i'm also interested by an option like that. I find the way to temporarily solve the problem, with just some templates customization. But, if i can find a solution in few time, without special knowledge of IPS development, i think it will be really fast for IPS team, and makes some customers really happy
