when you ask for help from this forum. If you do not post your configuration report we will not ask you for it but you will probably not get your problem solved, either.

Replied by sozzled on topic How to prevent users from editing profile
G'day, Dave, and welcome to Kunena.
I'm sorry that no-one else has responded to your question until now. Most people are inclined to ask the converse of your question (i.e. "For some reason, my users cannot edit their user profiles; how can I allow them to edit their profiles?"). Therefore your question is a little out of the ordinary.
I have a suggestion but I have to admit that I have not fully tested all the consequences of using this idea. The suggestion involves hiding the Edit button so that your users cannot see that there is a way to edit their profiles. The downside of this "solution" is that, with any decent web-design tool (e.g. Firebug), and a bit of cunning, anyone can unhide the Edit button and therefore they can change their user profile information.
It's curious that you should want to prevent your users editing "some of their profile details" after they've registered. Which of their profile details do you want to not prevent them from editing, for example? The "solution" that you see at the end of this message, will hinder all your users from editing any profile information.
As I've mentioned, I haven't fully proven that the following idea will not prevent you or your users performing other activities on your forum. It should work but you are cautioned to use the idea at your own risk.
Add the following three lines to the end of your Joomla site template CSS file:
Good luck.
