I have a 4.8.2 DNN website using Windows Active Directory for Authentication.  I want to disable the ability for a user to edit their profile.  How do I do this?  Is it a simple column change in SQL Server?  Thanks.

I'll have to dig into the core code to see what needs to be changed but if you have Synchronize checked any changes they make should be overwritten the next time they log in anyway.

I guess my main question would be whether the site is AD only or if you've got external users using it. If it's AD only then it's just a matter of finding the correct .ascx and disabling/hiding the link. If it's both AD and external then it's going to require a core change and a recompile of the DNN .dll.

The site is AD only.  No external users.  

I have been trying to find the correct ascx, but I haven't found it yet.  I'm glad to see that I was at least doing the right thing (possibly).  I'll keep looking.

Thanks.

ManageUsers.ascx and the line you're looking for is:

<dnn:commandbutton id="cmdProfile" runat="server"
     resourcekey="cmdProfile" imageurl="~/images/icon_users_16px.gif"
     causesvalidation="False"  />

Just add a Visible="False" to it. A side effect is that it won't be visible when you're logged in as an admin or host user either though there's probably some Javascript that could be added you could make it visible for someone with those credentials.

I tried that, but it still didn't work.  This is what I have:

   <td nowrap valign="bottom">
    <dnn:commandbutton id="cmdProfile" runat="server"
     resourcekey="cmdProfile" imageurl="~/images/icon_users_16px.gif"
     causesvalidation="False" visible="False"/>
   </td>
