[SOLVED] CB Privacy :How can a user set a query field to Private?

Are you sure the fix was applied properly? I can not confirm your issue any further locally with the fix applied. I'm not sure what more to advise as it has been fixed for next release same as the quickfix provided. If you've any form of caching be sure the caching is purged so the page will update. Only alternative I can suggest is to enable display of empty fields again within CB > Configuration > User Profile and it should work fine in that case as well.

I am sure I fixed it properly.
Then I set: display empty fields and it is ok
But I cannot use this .it shows some fields I have to hide.

You can see it:
You can still log on as user “krileon”
You see the setup.
Then if you are not loged in you see the address field for “krileon”
And you see the list:
www.ifsda.org/index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=usersList&listid=6
you see the changed file...
or dit i make a mistake?

[MOD EDIT]: Please do not attach subscriber content to these public forums.

I changed to „to enable display of empty fields“
This is ok
In the meantime I hope for a release with the fix.
Thank you

Please try changing the proposed fix to the below.


This will set the field value to space in all cases, which a lot of CB expects for a forced value hide. The quickfix only fixed if hide empty field was set and the empty value was set to '', but this defaults to -.

Fix to
$user->set( $fieldName, ' ' );
on Line 148 ??

Yes, on line 148 set it to that then retry. It'll force the output to a space which will hide its value. If still not working then something else is interfering with CB Privacy as again I can not confirm your issue locally with the fixes provided.
