Disable Member Title editing?

[LDDG]

How can I prevent certain member groups from being able to edit the Member Title on their profile page? The only option I have found is to disable member edit profile but that is a global setting. Then the member will not be able to edit any other info on their profile.

Is their a way to ONLY disable the ability for members to edit their Member Title?

TIA

Search for 'ranks' in the ACP - in the resulting list, click Ranks, then click the 'Change' link in the message that appears above the ranks.....then use the 'Never allow' option

Thinking further about it - not sure how that ties in with group permissions. Will take a look later on.

As far as I can find.. it's limited to an all or nothing type deal from what I can see.  Not very well thought out honestly if so.  That should be able to be controlled on a per user group basis but I guess that would add complexity to the ACP that is not wanted.

Well, it mirrors what has been around for quite a while pre-4.x

I've come to the same conclusion as you - it's all or nothing. No group permission there - so a) product feedback or b) customization request for a plugin from a 3rd party dev.
