I had a field in our members' profiles - "Name" - that contained real member names and cities-of-residence. Up until this recent upgrade, It was for my eyes only, i.e., only for Admins. This is sensitive data because I promised anonymity to our members, but *I* always knew who they were. Even Moderators shouldn't be able to see this information.
Anyway, as the three screenshots (hopefully) show, I no longer have the option to make this "Admin-only." Is there any way we can put this in as an option? Before, I had it displayed in each post, so I could see who the author was at-a-glance; now, I have to trudge onto the ACP, and that takes about 1-2 minutes each time - it's not worth it.
I hope this makes sense; otherwise, I can explain further.
Kind regards,
Don
