Show Profilebook entries only to tab owner and signer

Hi

I would like to show Profilebook entries only to the user who creates them and the owner of the profile they are left on.

In other words, exactly how it works, before the Profilebook entry is published, as only these two users can see the entry. If there is no other way of doing this I would be prepared to use this as a workaround, restricting publication somehow.

I have not been able to see a way of doing this using CB Conditional so far.

Many thanks

PS: A supplementary question to the above: I would like to edit some of the Profilebook text on the front end, eg references to Guestbook, as in "Would you like to sign this guestbook?" and the button, "Sign Guestbook", plus others

These are not appearing in a search in the CB language plugin overrides, so I'm assuming they are not available as overrides and would have to changed elsewhere?

There are no means of forcing that. Best I can suggest is just keep them unapproved.

CB Conditional controls tab and field display as a whole. It can not add features like you're wanting. It'd only be able to control the entire tab access.

They're language strings so you can use CBs language override functionality shown below to adjust them to whatever you like.

The language finder is not an indication that a language string exists or not. If you're adding overrides to anything other than the default language plugin then your installed language plugin maybe out of date and just missing those language strings.

Thanks for all of that. I think I have managed to track most of the language strings that I want to use.

However, there are quite a few phrases and button texts that I would like to edit, that seem to be in this file: public_html/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbprofilebook/templates/default/guestbook.php

These are not in the form of language strings as far as I can see, so I'm wondering how best to change the bits of text here? I'm not too knowledgeable on overrides, if that is the way to do it.

Thanks for your help

All text is language strings, which you can override using language overrides. See the below on how to use language overrides.

If you can't find a language key for a language string you can use the language string it self as the key. So for example if the string is "Hello!" you'd just set the Key to "Hello!" then translate it as needed.

Hi

Wow, that is just so great! Just tried it out, so easy. Thank you and thank you for making CB so adaptable!
