Is there a way to change this field from an input field to plain Text?<br /> Here is a Screenshot:<br /> <a href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s31/sh/2fd22ec9-36b7-4f12-ba99-f71817e1c729/252b44857fde9411504cdb8b320ef1da?noteKey=252b44857fde9411504cdb8b320ef1da&amp;noteGuid=2fd22ec9-36b7-4f12-ba99-f71817e1c729" rel="nofollow">https://www.evernote.com/shard/s31/sh/2fd22ec9-36b7-4f12-ba99-f71817e1c729/252b44857fde9411504cdb8b320ef1da?noteKey=252b44857fde9411504cdb8b320ef1da&amp;noteGuid=2fd22ec9-36b7-4f12-ba99-f71817e1c729</a> </p> <p>And there is an issue with the email adress field. When i try to update an profile - and didn't change the mail adress - there comes an alert, that the email-adress already exists. So that makes sense, if you register an account.

Create a form which has just the fields you want the user to be able to access, then when you map the feed, update just those fields and nothing else. Does that work for you? You will need to use the Beta release which is available for download here: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/downloads/add-ons/#User_Registration_Beta" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/downloads/add-ons/#User_Registration_Beta</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/allow-users-to-edit-only-some-of-their-profile-info#post-102741 Fri, 14 Dec 2012 14:58:39 +0000 jennmearswebdesign 102741@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello,<br /> I really want to use this plugin for a site that will allow members of an organization to register/submit their business info/edit their profiles and I am 99% ready to switch the process to GF and the User Registration add on. HOWEVER, two things that my client's current site allows are:<br /> 1: The site is able to display a list of all members to a logged in user (not a big deal, I can utilize the List Category Posts plugin for this.</p> <p>2: The organization's administrators only want the member to be able to edit SOME of their profile data. The administrators need to control how many years the member has been practicing and they don't want members changing that piece of data.</p> <p>Is it possible to somehow limit one field of a user's profile to admin access only?<br /> Thanks!<br /> Jenn </p>
