Override the input access view. Put a test there for isadminloggedin. If not logged in, put in a hidden input value with the hard coded access value that you want.

Cheers Cash. I understand your concept, but not entirely sure where to start.

Basically, I'm setting the site default access permissions to 'Private'. I then want to remove / hide the 'Access permission' field from everyone except admins.

I take it I will have to code the 'isadminloggedin' to each form: eg. profile, comments, topics, file uploads, etc. (Not a problem - the main  one I'm after is the profile......

@Mick

e.g. C:\xampp\htdocs\_FBFKIDS\views\default\input\access.php

*All forms use this view --> so if you code changes in here.. you've got your whole site covered ;-)

Cheers buddy ....... On it.

The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 Mail to fealliance.co.uk has been discontinued.  The account is over quota. ;-) 

Oops! Trying to be tight with my web space. Upgraded and sorted. Cheers buddy. Wondered why I wasn't getting any mail.

That's cool. Cheers again. Am off to get some sleep myself now.

@mick bullock How can you able to solve this issue?

Can you post up the code mod you made in access.php with the: if 'isadminloggedin', then show the access permisions drop down to user?
I understand the principle, just a little green to the syntax and positioning details.

Thanks!
