How can I define what profile fields are displayed for a given group?

For example I have a group where I want avery limited profile display, no 'location' or other custom fields I have created.

Afraid we do not support different subsets of profile fields at User Group level. I do not believe we have ever been asked for such a thing either although it is an interesting concept. I will make a note of it as it could make an interesting plugin.

Well, that's too bad, I would really appreciate that plugin!

Perhaps the Profiles - Display Control  plugin could add a way to define the controls by groups?

I have a scouting fourm with youth and adult members. I don't want to display any unique identifiers for youth on their profile (full name, email, location, etc.) so I basically have to turn these off for everyone. 

Can I have a profile display template for specific groups?

(BTW I really like simplepress, went around and around with buddypress and symposium, just too much fuss and bother to do what should be simple things. Thanks for creating this!)

Sorry to say I really can not think of any way you can achieve this currently. I will put it to the team in case there are any ideas.
