Hi, I want to achieve the same thing as described here:
www.jomsocial.com/forum/profile-universa...-as-a-privacy-option

Changing the code as detailed removes the public option from the drop down, however it is still set to public by default.

How do I set a field (or all fields) to "Only Me" as default?

Hi, Dave.

Browse to Backend -> Extensions -> JomSocial -> Configuration -> Privacy and set privacy as you like, then save and click reset button so it will sett all user settings like global one.

Hi, thanks for the feedback

I have done the steps outlined, but on the registration page the drop down next to the profile fields are still all set to public by default (the small world icon)

We are collecting private information like passport number and date of birth which must always be set to "only me" by default.

Thanks

Hi, Dave.

I'm sorry but you haven't specified WHERE you want this change. Original post is related wit PROFILE EDIT. Nevertheless it could be done.

Edit file: ROOT/components/com_community/libraries/privacy.php

And in line 67:

static public function getHTML( $nameAttribute , $selectedAccess = 0 , $buttonType = COMMUNITY_PRIVACY_BUTTON_SMALL , $access = array(), $direction = '' )

Perfect, thanks!
