XF 1.2 Hide dropdown without commenting it out

Howdy

On several clients websites, the client admin changing the xenforo primary group causes them all sorts of chaos (as usergroup permissions require registered as a base) and this issue happens a few times a month between my clients.

my idea is to hide(invisible but present) the drop down, yet unsure the best way to accomplish this

<xen:selectunit label="{xen:phrase user_group}:" name="user_group_id" value="2">
                    <xen:options source="$userGroups" />
                    <xen:explain>{xen:raw $_userChangesHtml}</xen:explain>
                </xen:selectunit>

any suggestions?

Do you mean in the ACP?

If so, you would need to edit the user_edit admin template like so to comment out the code:

<xen:comment>
    <xen:selectunit label="{xen:phrase user_group}:" name="user_group_id" value="{$user.user_group_id}">
        <xen:options source="$userGroups" />
        <xen:explain>{xen:raw $_userChangesHtml}</xen:explain>
    </xen:selectunit>
</xen:comment>
