Private Profile
If you need to report a bug, please do so on GitHub!

This mod allows users to hide their profile (make it private).

• Users can make their profile private at Profile > Modify Profile > Account Settings.
• Permissions can be changed at Admin > Members > Permissions.
• Settings for this mod can be changed at Admin > Configuration > Modification Settings.

How to install:
The Package Manager should work in most cases.

Languages:
- English

Features:
- Allows users to hide their profile.
- The mod can override various permissions to gain access to previously unavailable profiles; can be disabled and is disabled by default.
- The mod uses permissions to allow members to change their visibility settings; if they are not able to do so, the mod shows them the current setting applied to their profile.

Idea List:
- Make mod smarter depending on the forum settings (only show hide for guests option when guests can view profile etc.)

Changelog:
v0.3.2:
! Fixed critical bug (I thought I fixed that...)

v0.3.1:
! Bug fixed

v0.3:
+ Added "Only to buddies"
+ Added new settings, for both admins and users

v0.2:

Nice mod!

Is there a way to open your profile to buddies only?

Nope, but I will add that in the next version.

Ok, thanks Yoshi

Another note: make it 'everyone' on default (instead of 'nobody but myself')

(I changed my softy avatar )

Hm? It is members only by default.

(noes, now my counterpart is gone )

Ah! When I go to Profile > Modify profile > Account settings it says: Allow my profile to be viewed by 'Nobody but me' without changing it.

Cool idea, I would suggest the same:

Weird, it is made to set that to Members only by default... However I can make a query for you which changes this for all members, if you want.

And thanks 4Kstore

[Mr. Pedram]

Really Nice!

[NanoSector]

v0.3 up which adds all requested features and more

[Rain Forest]

Thanks!

EDIT: Reset the visibility settings of *ALL* members to Only works once..
I wanted to check if this works, set the permission to 'buddies only', which worked, and set it back to 'members only' but it failed. Also after Empty the file cache..

Another request: when a member set his permission to: 'buddies only' and a random member click on their profile it says:

This profile is made private by the owner, therefore you can't view it.

Maybe it's better to let this message say:

This profile is only visible for buddies only, become buddies to see his/her profile.

Is there anything in your error log?

And as soon as I get on my laptop I'll write that text change up for you, though I don't feel it is needed in the core.

Private profile does not touch that file

I'll have to dig into this. It should work just fine (and it did for me...)

It was an old bug, I never cleared the error log it's gone now

But I still have the 'change' error of this mod

[NanoSector]

Check if version 0.3.1 works for you

[Rain Forest]

It does but sometimes when I click on my profile (tested as admin and as a test-user) it says:

Code Select Expand

Wrong value type sent to the database. Array of integers expected. (users)

In errorlog:

[NanoSector]

That's not a problem with this mod, sorry

[Shambles]

Maybe it's better to let this message say:

This profile is only visible for buddies only, become buddies to see his/her profile.

I'd further rephrase it to avoid the tautology of "only" and "profile"

This member's profile can only be viewed if you become his or her buddy.

[NanoSector]

Okay. For that, in Sources/Profile.php, find:

Code Select Expand

// Otherwise we simply can't view this profile.
elseif (!$can_view)
fatal_lang_error('pp_cant_view', false);

Replace that with:

Code Select Expand

// Otherwise we simply can't view this profile.
elseif (!$can_view && $cur_profile['profile_private'] == 'buddies')
fatal_lang_error('pp_cant_view_buddies', false);
elseif (!$can_view)
fatal_lang_error('pp_cant_view', false);

Then, in Themes/default/languages/Modifications.english.php, find:

Code Select Expand


$txt['pp_cant_view'] = 'This profile is made private by the owner, therefore you can\'t view it.';

Add after:

Code Select Expand


$txt['pp_cant_view_buddies'] = 'The profile of this member can only be viewed if you become his or her buddy.';

If you want you can replace the text.
