Question How to show general statistics only for registered users?

Hi,
Does someone know how I can show general statistics only to registered users?
Currently when I set "Show general statistics" to "yes", everyone can see the list of forum members and I don't like that. I want to protect my registered users privacy in the way that their names are not on a "public" visible list where their names are showed including last login.

t.i.a.

G'day, Klipper, and welcome to the forum.

I'm not sure that what you want can be done with a simple configuration setting in K 1.5. I suppose the only "privacy" concerns with the statistics plugin involves the display of the latest member but, in other respects, statistics are just a bunch of numbers.

In K 1.5 you have the option to display statistics or not display statistics. These are covered in Kunena Forum » Kunena Configuration » Plugins » Stats Plugin Settings

You also have the option to allow unregistered users access or no access to your forum.

You could, conceivably, deny unregistered users access to your forum and that would certainly "protect" (to some degree) the anonymity of your registered users. Would that help? :)

Let me reiterate my previous observations: "In K 1.5 you have the option to display statistics or not display statistics. These are covered in Kunena Forum » Kunena Configuration » Plugins » Stats Plugin Settings" That's it. You can choose to display or to not display statistics; there's no halfway house I-only-want-to-display-statistics-for-authors+ option.

I also wrote that you have the option to only allow access to your forum if you are a registered user. In that way, registered users would see the forum (and the statistics) while those who weren't logged in would see neither. Would this work for you?

I'm sorry, but I really don't understand the "privacy" concerns. If you want to improve security, lock out the forum from those who have no business in there in the first place. Apply the KISS principle: Keep It Simple, Stupid! B)

I only want to show the general statistics for Authors, because these people have access to all categories, while registered users can only see few categories and non-registered only one category.

In general statistics you have access to userlist containing usernames and full names. Because of organization we have, we need both username and full name in the userlist.
But because of privacy we simply don't want that guests and registered can see the full names. That's reason for question.

But finaly I created a very simple hack in frontstats.php
(path: components/com_kunena/template/default/plugin/stats/)
I changed on line 42:
Code:
if ($fbConfig->showstats > 0) { if ($fbConfig->showgenstats > 0) {
to:
Code:
$my = &JFactory::getUser(); if ($fbConfig->showstats > 0) { if ($fbConfig->showgenstats > 0 && $my->gid > 18 && $my->gid <= 25) {
This hack solved perfectly my question. Maybe someone else can use hack too if wanted.
