Hide Custom Fields in Frontend.

I need this feature as well. Has it been implemented yet?

Hi

This feature is now available in the latest codebase of the extension but I haven't made it public release yet. I will try to make it release within this week (there are still some discussions needed about EU VAT Tax rules before we can finish this new version)

Hi Tuan,

I just installed Membership Pro, I am loving it already. I happened across this post as I was wanting to know this very same thing. I have quite a few custom fields that need not be viewed or filled out by the member. I would use this fields for tracking, reporting and filtering. I read your response above to this inquiry that was posted over a month ago and I did not see an "Access" drop down as you mentioned. Am I missing something?

Nevermind! I somehow missed that last reply I am getting tired (2 am here).

Hi Tom

If you want to have this feature working, drop me an email to tuanpn@joomdonation.com and I will send it to you

I emailed, but never heard back.

It appears, however, that some of this has been implemented in the latest release. Thank you!!

I don't know if it is exactly as some of us were hoping for but here is a further clarification, if it will help. Basically there are 2 useful options (which were features in that horrible program, Community Builder, which we just migrated from) that will really help my client:

1. To hide a field from the front end completely (so admins can make notes about dealings with the member)
2. To make a field "READ ONLY" on the front end (so admins can type messages ..."received your check on 1/29/14" ... that will be seen by the member, but can't be changed .. except by admin)

Hopefully those are the items that you were working on.

Thanks again for all your work ... and your responsiveness to your user base. It is what sets this product apart, for sure.

Hello Tuan,
I also have the same problem. I saw that in the new version you can indicate enl extra field a number of options such as "read only" and so on. But this also appears on the registration form, so if I want to make it "read only" the name of the user when updating his profile But preventing it to change, I can not make the field name as "read only" already in the registration form, otherwise how do you fill it? I hope I explained. I know you can take action in view of PHP / profile / tmpl / default.php when called fields of membership_id, but not if when updating the script lose and intervene if there is correct. If the script should indicate the fields first_name and last_name as "read only".
If you can confirm that in this way I can work on the front-end and drop me the correct script I would be grateful. If you can not try to do it, as long as you confirm for me that's where you can take action.
Thank you for your attention, I await response.

Hi

We don't have this option, unfortunately, so you will need to modify the file view/profile/tmpl/default.php to make it just display information, not make it editable. Don't worry about the saving script, it won't change the data

I have the same question, how to restrict user to edit the information after he has signed up to subscription plan. What exactly should be changed in the dafault_php file to make the restriction possible.
Also I would like to edit the layout of the user profile page, for instance instead of having tabs at the top of the screen I need a menu on the left sidebar.
Many thanks in advance.
