ok, here my question..

i configure dbman that a new user can signup to get an account and del/mod his own record.
Now the problem every other user can see his userid by searching the database, why ?

can i hide this field, how ?

In your .cfg file, make sure $auth_view_own is set to 1

Desp, it depends on how you want your database to be set up. Do you want people to be able to see the records of other people? If not, Moonwolf's solution will work. If so, you'll need to do some other things.

One more question before I answer. Are you using the autogenerate feature or have you made your own html_record_form subroutine?

sorry for my english, ok trying to exlpain my problem exactly. i want to create a database with the following permissions.
every user can see all other entries without logon. (default user).to add/del/mod his own record he has to sign up.
the problem is that allway the username "wich was entered in signup form" will be saved in his record as his ID.

but i don´t want that other users can see his ID (login name)

if you want to take a look

see it on

thanks so far Desp
