As designed Custom User Fields - 'Editable only once' deson't work on XF2.2

[gogo]

Affected version

2.2

The user selects a gender during registration. After login, it's not showing anywhere for changing.

I remember this Editable Only Once thing worked in X2.1 which after you selected for the first time, you can change it once more.

This is actually the correct behavior and how it should have always been working; there isn't any reason this should have changed in 2.2. This option means that the user can set the value once and then it can't be changed.

Worth noting that this doesn't necessarily mean they can only set it at registration. This is significant if you add a custom field after someone registers or if you make the field non-required (as it won't be considered set until they select a value).

Two Questions

1. Is it possible to give give permission for user groups for "editable only once" !?

2. If enabled "editable only once" , show the field (frozen) without permission to change !?
