Is it possible to hide the email address in the profile viewer?  We don't want our admin's emails from wordpress being publicized in the profile views...

Yes it is. But are you aware that you, as the forum admin, are the only people who can see the user emails. Your members will NOT be able to see any other addresses?

So the email listed when someone clicks on a user's name and sees the pop up profile view where it says:

Contact RandomUser123
------------------------------------------
             Email: randomusersemail@emailserver.com

 

That is only visible to admins?

It is only visible to admins unless the permission "Can view email and IP addresses of members" is checked on

oooh. yes. I had forgotten about that. This was a change we made to the permissions a couple of releases back. Some forum users wanted their members to see other member email addresses. So yes - turn that off as well. Thanks for the nudge.

Thanks for the help...
I would add of course... as always we recommend that you create your own SP theme so that any customisation is not lost during a future update. (http://codex.simple-press.com/.....g-a-theme/)
