Require Admin Approval conditional

Hello,

I need to make the Required Admin Approval conditional depending on a field value user chooses when is registering. It is a single select field, so I want to probably hack the code to have Admin Approval required if value A was chosen and Admin Approval is not required if value B was chosen from that single select dropdown field.

I appreciate your suggestion as it is very important for my site. Thank you.

I have also a quick question, I want to avoid display of a field in edit Profile. I was thinking that if I set to Read Only, it should not be displayed but it is still displayed. Is this possible?

Can't guarantee this will work, but you can try incubator project CB Fields using the on before registration trigger. It allows you to alter users fields at various CB triggers conditionally based off field value.

You can use CB Privacy to accomplish this. Once installed simply edit your field and disable profile edit view for the field.

Hello,

Thanks for your guidance. I have tried to use CB Fields.

Trigger: onBeforeUserRegisteration
User: Automatic
Access: Everyone
Conditional: specific field equal to AAAAAAAAA

{now I need to choose a field, operator, and value which will make the registration Require Admin Approval, clearly there is no such field???}

I dont know what field to choose so that Require Admin Approval could be triggered. I still think the code should be changed where condition for Admin Approval is checked. I appreciate if you could make a suggestion to do this. Thank you.

I said earlier I can't guarantee it'd work, but was worth a shot. I can't advise you on source edits, sorry. It unfortunately appears the approval field isn't available for changing. Best approach is to probably just develop a plugin to do exactly what you're wanting. You'd need to utilize CBs various triggers to accomplish this. I recommend the below tutorial which also provides an installable example.

Hello, if it was single trigger I could work to find a work around but as it has to be combination of several triggers I dont know how to code the php file.

In you example you have

// Initiate the trigger:
global $_PLUGINS;
$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'onAfterUserRegistration', 'registered', 'tutorialtriggersPlugin' );

// Define the plugin class:
class tutorialtriggersPlugin extends cbPluginHandler {

// Establish the trigger function:
function registered( $user ) {
var_dump( $user ); // Output the trigger user object variable
}
}

if you had time to guide me on the coding, I can prepare the plugin and upload it here so that others also could use if they did wanted to have admin approval conditional. sorry for taking your time.

No, sorry; I can't code this for you. If you need further coding assistance you should hire out to a contract developer from sites like Joomlancers. Please review the tutorial on available triggers, their variables, and how to use them. The $user object is already provided in most cases so changing the approved field or checking against a custom field is already available.
