Issue
- I would like to disable personal information fields in user account settings to prevent users from editing their names, screennames and other such personal information.
Resolution
-
Add the following lines to the portal-ext.properties file:
field.editable.user.types=user-with-mx
field.editable.domains=somefakedomain.com
Note: This sets all users (except those with ‘somefakedomain.com’ domain in their email) without permission to edit profile fields.
-
If you wish to customize individually the fields that users are allowed to edit, you can use the following properties (uncommented) with the proper email domain set as values:
#field.editable.domains[birthday]=
#field.editable.domains[emailAddress]=
#field.editable.domains[firstName]=
#field.editable.domains[gender]=
#field.editable.domains[jobTitle]=
#field.editable.domains[lastName]=
#field.editable.domains[middleName]=
#field.editable.domains[portrait]=
#field.editable.domains[prefix]=
#field.editable.domains[screenName]=
#field.editable.domains[suffix]=
