Notes |
Purpose of the Mod
In the Person Profile, this mod limits the visibility of the branches to which an Individual is assigned.
- Administrators see all branch names assigned to all Individuals.
- Non-logged-in users and users without a branch restriction never see any branch assignments.
- Users who have a branch restrict may see their branch name, depending on a mod option.
Mod Options
The one option allows logged-in users with a branch assignment to see their branch name when they view the Person Profile for any individual who is a assigned to their branch.
The branch assignment that is relevant to this mod is branch to which this user is restricted and has nothing to do with branch assignments associated with a possible Person record associated with the User.
Compatibility With Other Mods
There are no apparent conflicts, but there are so many mods that affect the Person Profile that I haven't tested them all against this mod. Please contact me if you encounter any conflicts.
Related Mods
- Show Branch Members doesn't have a dependent relationship with this mod, but it also affects the display of branch names in the Person Profile. [[Show Branch Members] turns whatever branch names are displayed into hyperlinks that show a list of the branch's members.
- This mod supplies information that is used by the optional mod Show Mod Names. If you don't install Show Mod Names, you simply won't see the "Show Mods" at the bottom of the Person Profile. Note that end-users are unlikely to see the "Show Mods" button in any case, since the default value of a Show Mod Names option omits the "Show Mods" button from pages viewed by end-users.
