Question Demo user

Hi,
I have create a user with name 'demo' and password 'demo'.
Is it possible to prevent users of changing the profile of user 'demo'?

thanks

Hello,

If you in public a login and a password, the users will do what they want, so maybe you can time to time delete the user and re-create an another.

I could reach my goal if there was an option for hiding the link 'My Profile'. I searched in the control panel of Kunena but I didn't find such an option.

This is a Joomla issue; not a Kunena issue. Kunena is totally agnostic about user accounts and whether you, as a site administrator, allow your users to change or not change account passwords. I'm sure your situation occurs often; there's probably a few tips on how to address it at forum.joomla.org/ .

Basically, though, if any user can change their password, then any user can change their password. Your demo user is "any user" and therefore anything that anyone can to do their own accounts (when they're logged in) they can also do if they can access your "demo" account.

What you're looking for is some kind of "captive account" that operates differently from the others. That's something you'll have to discover for yourself.

Hi,

yes it is possible with a little hack.

First disable a new registration in the Joomla Global Configuration.
Then open the file

components / com_kunena / template / default / plugin / myprofile / myprofile_menu.php

and comment line 51.

Now you need to hack Joomla Login Module also.

Open the file

modules / mod_login / tmpl / default.php

and comment the lines 54 - 61 related to Username and Password.

Regards

Now I know what are my options.
Thank you both for your comments.
