While I agree that it works as designed, the design conflicts with a feature that is inherent to all other field types in Community Builder. I paid for the file field plugin assuming it would work exactly like all other fields and would be able to be hidden if the file field and/or tab were empty... this is how every other field-type works. So why would I assume a file field would not work the same exact way as the other fields?

Thank you for the reply. I have followed your instructions, however there appears to be a hyperlinked "." in what should be an empty field. When you hover over the hyperlinked period it says "Click or right-click filename to download" even though there is no file present and I have made sure that there is no value in the "Text to display for empty fields" field under the "user profile" tab of the configuration panel.

I have disabled Ajax, have file extension icons set to "hide", notify is disabled, user read only is set to "yes", show empty tabs and empty fields is set to "no" and I have even uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin twice. However, it seems the "Hyper linked period" might be getting in the way.

I did notice within the plugin on line 973 this code in the cb.filefield.php file:

$oValue			=	( ( $reason == 'edit' ) ? '<p>' : null ) . ( ( $field->params->get( 'fieldFile_icons', 0 ) == 0 ) ? $icon : null ) . '<a href="' . $oValue . '" title="' . CBTxt::T( 'Click or right-click filename to download' ) . '"> ' . $file_name .  '</a>' . ( ( $reason == 'edit' ) ? '</p>' : null );[code type=php]

Is there a way to change this code to stop the the "hyperlinked period" from occupying what should be an empty field?

Thanks again Nant.
