Hi

Is it possible for CB (along with CBSubs) to make a specific group only able to search users from another specific group

aka:

I would like to have 3 different groups
1) general public
2) staff
3) companies

I would like the companies to be able to search staff and only get a list of staff that have selected a hidden field in their profile that says if they are looking for jobs or not.

The staff would be able to search all companies

The general public can search all staff and all companies.


With regards to the staff (in relation to the companies searching them) Would I need to have 2 different groups for that.
Staff - looking for work
Staff - not looking for work
and depending on whether or not the hidden field is checked yes or no, would be automatically moved to the relevant group.


Hope the above makes sense (if not then let me know and I will try to explain it a different way)

Thanks in advance

I'm actually doing something somewhat like this on my site. First create 3 lists identical to each other.

Now add a filter to Staff to filter by a field (e.g. `cb_lookingforwork` = '1'). This used as a checkbox will mean if cb_lookingforwork is checked then the user will show.

All you need is 3 userlists and add some filtering. CBSubs doesn't even need to be involved unless you want to limit what subscriber can see what userlist or you want to use CBSubs Fields to change a persons field value based on subscription.

Thanks for that.

I will give it a go. I think i will still need CBSubs to allow for the 3 different registration type pages (different fields per group type)

I am sure I will have loads more questions nearer the time so apologies in advance

(I am just doing the ground work at the moment to see what modules I will need to buy)
