I would like to set my profile as "hidden" from public view. That would be fine because:

1. I would like to be no disturbed when online
2. I like to keep my privacy, and unreveal that i'm surfing the web in that moment (when check pms from work )

I think that two areas should be affected by this feature:

1. personal profile, lists and connections icons, where I should be HIDDEN (so no ONLINE or OFFLINE)
2. comprofile_module, where it should reveal normal usernames online, and nr. x of hidden users online

Hope to have made it comprehensible

I believe machiel is working on the old Cblogin451 that can do something like this. So you probably do not have to wait long before you have this feature.

And, maybe you can already find the feature in a login module that is already compatible with CB.

I'm not sure it's the same feature I tried to describe. I will get into details.

The "Hidden status flag" should be available into user profile setting, as a check box.
The online status of a user after the login should be not really hidden, just maskered from see who he is. That's because any online user must be counted into the user list comprofiler module, eg:

ONLINE USERS:
- user1
- user2
- user3
(and 2 hidden users)

In this example, module shows total 5 users online so any member presence is missed.
The hidden status should also affect CB userLists, where users with "hidden flag" set ON should be always "HIDDEN", even if online or offline.
Did you mean that, trail?
