Thanks Matt Thanks Matt")* Hi, That plugin hasn't made to support the modification of the custom fields through the Joomla user profile. I would recommend to edit the HikaShop user synchronization plugin via the Joomla plugins manager and turn off the "Display custom user fields on user profile edition page" setting. That way, it will prevent the user's group to be changed inadvertedly by the user.

Thanks Matt Thanks Matt")* Thanks for the recommendation Nicolas, I did that already and unfortunately when that setting is off, the edit profile page cannot be saved.. you get an ACL error. This is directly related to the plugin below, as when i disable it, the user profile can be saved as normal. It sounds like the only clean was to use this plugin is to disable access to the "edit user profile" section of the control panel, which is unfortunate. If that is my last resort can you assist me is accomplishing that? Thank you!

Joomla is providing the "edit user profile" feature ; that's not related to HikaShop. After that, like Nicolas wrote, there is a setting in the plugin (via the Joomla plugin manager) in order to not display the HikaShop custom user fields in the Joomla profile.

The first field has two options A and B, and with , is used to select which user group is appropriate for the person registering. Option B, has several additional required custom fields that appear when selected and must be filled out before a successful registration. This all works perfectly. The problem is when a registered user goes to edit his profile. When selecting option B the custom fields appear as they should, however if the user hits save WITHOUT filling out those additional required fields, the user's group is successfully changed to the Option B level despite having not filled out the required fields associated with option B. The page does show "you must fill out the required fields" errors, but it is still saving data from the fields that have been populated. This makes the requirement useless. I realize that the "Edit profile page" is a Joomla page, how can i get it to recognize the "field requirement" from a hikashop custom field? Thanks Matt Thanks Matt")* Hello Jerome, Thank you for your response. I understand that the Hikashop User plugin is not blocking the user saving, the "FTW User Group Plugin" in conjunction with the "not display user fields" setting you suggest is what creates the error. And with the setting left on, the required fields simply dont work in edit profile. **Well I just saw that the FTW extension was removed due to "UR3-Vulnerable Extension"! Guess there is no point in trying to continue to trouble shoot.. Thanks for the help anyway!** Matt The following user(s) said Thank You: [Jerome](/forum/user/80-jerome "View Jerome's Profile") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzMzLWN1c3RvbWVycy84ODM0NzEtZWRpdC15b3VyLXByb2ZpbGUtcGFnZS1pZ25vcmluZy1oaWthLXJlcS1maWVsZHM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation.
