My bad. I confuse Roles and User type registration

But then how can i change that, user type registration (for a registred user  ?

It is a similar with my issue about the fiels not showing up in profil pages.
Ok. But how do I see thoses infos ?? Even with phpMyAdmin i can't find them..

Regards.

You can't change account type for registered users. I don't suggest you to change it via phpmyadmin, the better way is to ask users register again

This is a problem for now. Currently, you can see it on Edit profile page only (if this page is set for edit page). Site' admin can't see such fields in anywhere. We will fix it in some of the next updates.

Thanks to be clear on that topic.
I'm a bit surprised because it makes sense is'nt ?

Otherwise there is no point in setting the field if it's not showing/usable anywhere for admin/moderators..

For now, could you point me to the table(s) used for those fields ? Will there be somes readable infos ?

next updates... Hope that will soon. (ie not version 3.2 ;-)

For now the only way it to make it visible for a moment, go quick, grab the infos and move back to invisble  i guess..

I can't list you such fields in database. It depends from what list of profile questions did you set as not visible on profile view and in any case such list will be different.

This isn't a very graceful solution to changing user types for a registered user.

Where can I make an enhancement request to have user type controls added via a Plug-in?


If not at the user level, controlled by permissions, at least at the moderator or admin level.


I've been involved with many user platforms and this is the first where I find no option to move a user from one user type to another via a simple gui manipulation.
