Hide User Contact Info From Guests

What it does: Hides the user contact info part of the profile from guests.

Difficulty: Easy
Templates to Edit: 1 MEMBERINFO (4 edits to same template)
Phrases to add: 2

How to install: Download the attached text file and follow the instructions.

What does it look like?: See attached screenshots. One is for a guest and the other for a member.

I want to see a live demo: Go to www.peterska2.co.uk and take a look at the profiles there.

If you use this please remember to click the install button. It's the only way I know if you like what I do.

There is now an option to make this a user selectable option. To upgrade an existing install download the zip and follow the instructions in the file marked UPGRADE. For a fresh install use the file marked NEWINSTALL

Updated 06 Jan 2006 @ 1855 GMT: Added instructions for user selectable show and hide.

Updated 09 Dec 2005 @ 2320 GMT: Added new text file for 3.5.2 instructions as last edit has changed.

anyway to let the guest know that the people's info is private because they are a guest and can't view unless they are a registered member?

For some reason I'm getting this error:

The following error occurred when attempting to evaluate this template:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/****/domains/****.com/public_html/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3532) : eval()'d code on line 206

This is likely caused by a malformed conditional statement. It is highly recommended that you fix this error before continuing, but you may continue as-is if you wish.

I'm new to this stuff. Where exactly do I add the "phrases" part?

Go to your AdminCP, click "Languages & Phrases" -> "Phrase Manager" -> "Add New Phrase"

@Topic; thanks, trying it out now.

[Dsyn11]

Got it! Thanks very much!

Did you do all 4 edits before attemptiing to save? If you didn't do all four then it will error as you will have unfinished if statements.

You can change the phrases to display different text. You might want to consider something along the lines of "Contact Info is available to members only"

Great hack!

And is it going to work on 3.5.2?
