Profile Field Per User Group

---

This application will allow admins to choose which user groups will be able to use and view each Profile Field. All groups, by default, will be able to use any Profile Field. Users from groups that are not selected on field settings will not be able to view and fill the field on his profile.

Usage:

• Go to Members -> Profiles -> Profile Fields. Edit or create a new Profile Field. You will notice two new fields:
  • Allowed Groups: choose which user groups you want their users to FILL the field.
  • Visible to: choose which user groups you want their users to VIEW the field in profile/posts. Admins and the profile owner will be able to view all profile fields.

Hi Adriano,

I have a question for the following settings.

• The user is in a Group A.
• Group A is allowed to fill the profile field.
• The field is set to Shown to all.
• User fills the field out.
• Group B is not allowed to fill the field.

What happens, if this user is moved to the Group B? Will the field and its content still be visible for all? Or is it suppressed in this case?

Thank you!

Once the data is saved, it’s stored. Change the group of a user won’t make it go away, unless you (or the user removes it), so it will keep showing up if all groups can view it.

Thank you! In this case, this is not what I need. 🙃 

What I require is similar to the signature in IPS default. If the user is allowed to use the signature, then it is displayed in his settings. If not, then he cannot see the setting and the signature (filled or not) is also not displayed to anybody.

What I require …

It’s a dead end road, honestly. None of this will work on IPS5 as hooks were removed so it’s better you rethink it, otherwise you may waste your time/money in something custom that will work until you update to IPS5.

For this plugin itself, I believe it will make part of IPS5.
