Hello,

I want to hide password field in user profile... can you help me?

Thanks!!

Trusca.

What's the status of this?

You can simply comment out the lines of code that generate the password field rows from the core plugin:
/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbcore/cb_core.php

Lines 223 to 232 in CB 1.1:
[code:1] /*
$return .= "<tr>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"titleCell\">"._UE_PASS.":</td>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"fieldCell\"><input class=\"inputbox\" type=\"password\" size=\"40\" id=\"password\" name=\"password\" value=\"\" autocomplete=\"off\" />";
$return .= getFieldIcons($ui, false, false, sprintf( _VALID_AZ09, _UE_PASS, 6 ), _UE_PASS.":"«»);
$return .= "</td>\n</tr>\n";
$return .= "<tr>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"titleCell\">"._UE_VPASS.":</td>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"fieldCell\"><input class=\"inputbox\" type=\"password\" size=\"40\" id=\"verifyPass\" name=\"verifyPass\" autocomplete=\"off\" />";
$return .= getFieldIcons($ui, false, false);
$return .= "</td>\n</tr>\n";
*/[/code:1]

I haven't seen any side-effects of this. Hopefully in future versions this is a simple radio option in the backend.

I should note that simply commenting out the lines will throw off a function though - if you have a debugger like Firebug enabled you will notice the following error:
me.password has no properties
<<joomla>>/component/option,com_comprofiler/Itemid,11/task,userDetails/
Line 243

A better way of handling this would be to hide the table rows with CSS - eg add a class with a property of display: none;
[code:1] // JL Hack
//Password
$return .= "<tr class='hideme'>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"titleCell\">"._UE_PASS.":</td>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"fieldCell\"><input class=\"inputbox\" type=\"password\" size=\"40\" id=\"password\" name=\"password\" value=\"\" autocomplete=\"off\" />";
$return .= getFieldIcons($ui, false, false, sprintf( _VALID_AZ09, _UE_PASS, 6 ), _UE_PASS.":"«»);
$return .= "</td>\n</tr>\n";
//Verify password
$return .= "<tr class='hideme'>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"titleCell\">"._UE_VPASS.":</td>\n";
$return .= " <td class=\"fieldCell\"><input class=\"inputbox\" type=\"password\" size=\"40\" id=\"verifyPass\" name=\"verifyPass\" autocomplete=\"off\" />";
$return .= getFieldIcons($ui, false, false);
$return .= "</td>\n</tr>\n";
//[/code:1]
And in your template's CSS you would add:
[code:1].hideme {
display:none;
}[/code:1]

This could also be done by adding style="display:none;" to the tr's instead of the class and style sheet addition.
