Contact Information: View Only field issue
October 23, 2011, 10:19:49 am
I require that an authenticated user cannot edit their own CiviCRM Profile. To achieve this, I've set all fields in the Contact Information Profile (form) to View Only.
The path where I am doing this is: Home › CiviCRM › Administer CiviCRM › CiviCRM Profile › CiviCRM Profile Fields

This works for all fields except for State (Home).  This remains a drop-down list which a user can select from and Save.
Has anyone else seen this behavior and have a clue why this field behaves differently that all of the others in this Profile?  I need this field to be View Only as well. Thanks

Yes. I have reproduced it on the Drupal 6.x demo server:
http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/user/2/edit/Name%20and%20Address

I'll file an issue. Thanks Donald.
