XF 1.2 Disabling Public Age

[JordanAtFuze]

I was wondering how I would go about disabling the age which is shown when looking at a users profile.

Users can change it in their account preferences.

Is there anyway to do it without manually going to each user, such as disabling it for everyone.

It would require a query.
Do you have access to phpMyAdmin and are comfortable using it?

Users can change it in their account preferences.

Isn't there also a system wide setting to display it? We're not seeing user ages in their profiles in our forum and this is the setting used in Options:User Registration

That only applies to new registrations.
It won't affect existing members.

OK, thanks!

It was set that way when first did our original install.

Doing it to everyone really wouldn't be fair to those that don't mind having their age known.

Just post a tutorial thread on how members can disable their age from displaying if they'd rather not have it known.
