Bug Trade Alert Options in Preference Page

[etrd]

Not sure if it's a bug or intended. But even if the trade feature is globally disabled and the trade permissions for usergroups are set to NO, the alert options in user's Preference page still shows. Some options are shown as well even if a user has no permissions like the ones below.

Reacts to your item (Create items permission is set to No)
Reviews your item (Create items permission is set to No)
Creates an item in a watched category (Is there a watch/unwatch option for item categories, we dont see one)

We're receiving inquiries regarding trades and we have to respond awkwardly that trade is not available. Same with how to create an item.

This is working as intended because if those options were removed, saving your alert preferences would remove those alerts from the user's saved preferences. In other words, if the feature was then re-enabled, everyone would have those alerts disabled.

This is due to how XF saves these preferences.

I see. Could we just hide it then. Add conditional statements so it would only show to admins. Could you point me to which template and codes to edit?

 

[Fillip H.]

The checkboxes are auto-generated based on definitions in the code, around line 105 in account_preferences.

Ok, so there's no way to prevent it from displaying then.

I don't believe so, no.
