I have some delimiter fields that show the users email address in convenient places

but some users may want to hide this.

setting CB to allow the user to control the privacy doesnt seem to be working.

the dropdown option even though enabled on the admin side isnt showing up in the front end edit for users.


why not? How to fix?

Joomla 1.7.3
CB 1.7.1
CB subs 1.2.2

As far as I am aware you can't use CB Privacy on delimiter fields. You'd need to allow privacy control of the email address field it self then ensure your delimiter field is using proper appropriate substitution API ([cb:userfield field="FIELD_NAME" /]) so it respect those privacy settings.

Well you can also try the below, but I can't recall if it respects privacy controls or not.

[cb:userdata field="email" /]

yes it displays the email address

no it doesnt respect the privacy settings.

oh well.....

If the main email address field has privacy available and it is set to "do not display"
the delimiter overrides this and displays anyways.

it must be a delimiter field limitation.

Might be worth correcting in an upcoming release if possible.
delimiters should have the ability for privacy as well.


until then I will find a workaround.


Any advice on how to call SuperMessanger instead of the default CB email system?

quick and dirty workaround idea...
What about wrapping all displayed Email fields with an IF statement? The IF asks for a another CB-checkbox field i.e. cb_showmyemailadress
The user can set this checkbox, and it hides ALL occurencies.
