Disable "Show Stats" in Profile

[Blade_Runner]

Is there a way to prevent viewing other member's stats? I am referring to the "Show Stats" under "view profile summary" for non-administrators and moderators.

Code Select Expand

'statistics' => array(
'label' => $txt['statPanel'],
'file' => 'Profile-View.php',
'function' => 'statPanel',
'permission' => array(
'own' => 'profile_view_own',
'any' => 'profile_view_any',
),

by default if you can view the profile you can view the stats per the code above, you would need to add a new permission and apply it to this function as well as the member groups then you can hide it from the users.

Thank you for your reply. I don't know any coding. How can I do what you have explained?

check the existing code in ManagePermissions.php [i think is the file name] in the Sources folder. copy one permission edit it to have a new name/function. then edit the above code. you will also have to add the new txt properties to the language files. somewhat similar to http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=410758.msg2863078;topicseen#msg2863078

Isn't there a simpler way? Like just removing the "Show Stats" link from the menu?

Sure, but the action itself will still be available...what Illori suggested is quite simple.

It might be easy for both of you. I do not know how to write codes. I just know editing or deleting with instructions.   

[Illori]

if you can wait a few hours, when I get off work I can write up exact instructions like in the post I linked for what changes are needed. You will still need to apply the changes yourself though.

I can make the changes with instructions. Thank you for your support. Greatly appreciate. I am still young, I can wait.  Do it when you are free.

Please backup the files that need changes before doing them. there will be no message if a user attempts to access the stats page unsuccessfully, they will just see the profile summary page.

Thank you for your mod. Other than the menu terms, it's working perfectly.
The menu shows both permission as "View profile stats".

It's like the following.
--------------------------
View their own profile   
View other people's profiles   
View profile stats   
View profile stats
--------------------------

It should be
--------------------------
View their own profile   
View other people's profiles   
View their own profile stats   
View other people's profile stats
--------------------------

[Illori]

it should have it correct

Code Select Expand

$txt['permissionname_profile_view_stats_own'] = 'Own profile';
$txt['permissionname_profile_view_stats_any'] = 'Any profile'; controls that part. it looked ok from what i can recall when i tested it.

unless that text is found elsewhere.

[Blade_Runner]

OK, I found out the problem. Your mod is only display correctly in the "Change View: classic" mode. I am using "Change View: Simple".

I manage to fix this problem by adding the following codes.

Look for

Code Select Expand

$txt['permissionname_simple_profile_view_any'] = 'View other people\'s profiles';

Add after

Code Select Expand

$txt['permissionname_simple_profile_view_stats_own'] = 'View their Own profile stats';
$txt['permissionname_simple_profile_view_stats_any'] = 'View their Any profile stats';

It is working perfectly now. Thanks for the help!

[Illori]

glad it is working for you.
