Hi there,

I have set up a forum for a sensitive subject and want to know how to stop people from looking at user profile information such as names? Ideally people should just be able to see the username and no more than that for each user.

 

Thanks

So would it not be far better to simply disallow them from using the profile and the members buttons by turning off those permissions for your users?
