I want to set the default privacy on the registration page and the default is stuck on public for all fields. Don't want the user have to select that individually and most shouldn't be public anyway. Please see my video. Is something interfering w/ this setting or is there another way to default privacy on the registration page??

Hi Jonathan,

you can do it by using override method:
documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Customizing_Template

copy this file /components/com_community/templates/default/privacy.php to /templates/[your frontend template]/html/com_community/
edit it, at line 18

$selectedAccess = ($selectedAccess) ? $selectedAccess : 0;

So that works globally, but is there a way to make that work more granularly? For instance, if i want the "About me" field to be "site members" by default, but i want the "Mobile phone" set to "friends" ? Think that this should be a apart of the back end configuration.

Is there an easy way to write a case statement based on the "Field Code" or something similar?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jonathan,

it cant be like that. privacy box not designed like that. you need to create new plugin for that.

you can put user voice at here:

or if you want hire developer for build "big efforts" customization:
