Hiding Custom Fields on Add Group Member Form

Hello! Quick question: I would like to hide some of the custom fields that are on the Membership sign-up form from the Add a Group Member form. For example, the Group Member that's being added should inherit the address info of the Group Admin member, rather than entering it all again when they add their spouse or partner.

Is this a setting I missed somewhere, or is there another method of going about it?

Thanks!

Hello Malice

Unfortunately, it is not possible. Right now, we don't have an option to allow that? What fields you want group members to inherit from group admin? Let me know so that I can see whether we can help with customizing the code to allow that

I really just wanted to hide them so they don't have to fill that info out again.

The issue I'm trying to solve:
Each membership is good for 2 people (the subscriber and his/her spouse or partner), but we need to make sure the 2nd person's email address gets entered so that it feeds through to MailChimp automatically. Using Group Memberships accomplishes this, but we don't need to capture the 2nd person's physical address, etc. because their spouse already provided it at registration.

I'll look into possibly using MailChimp's features in a different way, but if you've got any ideas for conditionally hiding fields or choosing not to show them on Group Member Add a Member form, I'm all ears.

Hello Mal

So exactly what's the name of fields you want to hide from adding group members form? Maybe sending me the screenshot of the form and let me know what fields you want to hide?

I have had this on my personal wish list for some time.

We have a family membership for people living at the same address. At present we have to trust people as the system allows for each group member to have a different address.

I would like to hide a mixture of core and custom fields on both the add group member form AND also on the group members profile if at all possible:
- organization
- address
- address2
- osm_address3
- city
- zip
- state
- country
- phone
- osm_giftaid
- osm_GADate
- osm_vatnum

this only leaves a few fields I want to show:

- first_name
- last_name
- email
- comment
- fax (i use it for a different purpose)
- osm_mobile_phone
- osm_contact_permission

We really need a config item per custom/core field:

- show for group members (Y or N)

If they cant be hidden and need to be filled in because they are mandatory, then auto populate from group_admin and make read only in group member form and profile.

I would also like them to all have the same membership_id as the group_admin:)

I'm attaching 2 screenshots, but my concerns are basically identical to Alan's above.

Based on our Membership rules, the Group Member is technically required to be the spouse or partner of the Group Admin. The Group Admin has already filled out all their mailing and vacation home information, we just need to know Group Member name, phone and email address and allow them to create a password for the Group Member so that:
a) They have their own username and password to log into the system and
b) Their email address is added as its own unique record to the Membership list in MailChimp via the plug-in

All the rest of the stuff isn't important, as we've captured it during the initial Membership Registration process.

Thanks,
Mal
