XF 2.2 How to hide all custom user titles

[Masetrix]

Is there a way to hide, or reset all custom UserTitles only?

 

[Masetrix]

Hide is the solution for me...

Add to extra.less:

.message-userTitle {display:none;}
.memberTooltip {.userTitle {display:none;}}
[data-template="member_view"] {.userTitle {display:none;}}

 

[jar546]

Where is that found?

 

[James]

Extra.less is a custom template in the xenforo template system.

 

[jar546]

Thank you. I don't see that in my extra.less. This is over my head for right now.

Add it.

OK it worked but not the results I was hoping for. Some members can still input a custom user title and I don't want them to. I have that permission set to NEVER and rebuilt the caches several times and it does not work

When I added the code above, it worked but then no user titles showed up at all so I turned it off. I appreciate any help.

If the permission is set to never they can not add a custom title.

You have something set up incorrectly, or a third party add-on or other code is involved.

This thread was not started by me and I see that the person was shown how to hide the custom title but not how to remove it which I think is the issue with me. This is certainly a learning experience. I need to remove the custom title of everyone that typed one it but the default custom title made by my system needs to show in its place.
I appreciate all for he inlput.

 

[jar546]

I did find out that if I find these members and delete this from their profile in the ACP, the default title does takes its place after I rebuild the cache

 

[Paul B]

Yes, removing a permission does not remove the content - the same applies to existing signatures if the permission is removed.

The existing content needs to be deleted and then the default title will be used.

 

[jar546]

Ultimately, I think the easiest would be to run a script that would delete any characters in the custom user title areas of existing members then just rebuild the user cache and that should fix it. I just have to figure out how to remove them instead of looking one by one.

This was possible in xf1 but not sure if the schema is the same in 2 - perhaps @Paul B can confirm.

XF 1.5 Thread 'Remove all custom user titels?'

Jan 15, 2016

Is it possible to remove all the custom user titels at once? (Batch update users does not have user titels in it)

I want to use a user title ladder, but most of the users have a custom user title. I already set persmissions for the user title at NO, but that doesnt remove the custom user titel.

Thanks in advance!

That should still work.

 

[jar546]

I have a way to go then. My site is on AWS and I don't have anything set up such as an SQL editor. I have to figure that all out. Again, I appreciate the help.

This has come a long way since I wrote basic programming on a Radio Shack TRS-80 and saved the programs on an audio cassette before the 5-1/4" floppy came out. I am way, way behind.

@Ozzy47 has some batch user add ons - perhaps he can add this quick feature to one of his add ons for you to avoid the direct sql manipulation.

Ask nicely
