Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Currently that is no way to achieve this but perhaps you can try this following suggestion and see if this will help?

1. Premium user profile type - under Joomla premium user group

2. Registered user profile type - under Joomla registered user group

3. Create a hidden menu item for "Easysocial (Video) Create Layout" and set this menu access for those group contain "Premium" user group only can able to access

Result : when the user do not have this "Premium" Joomla user group, system will denied access when they trying to view user video.

I created private group "VIP" and upload Premium content to this group.

When user Donate, I manually:
1) invite this user to VIP-group;
2) change user's Profile type and User's Joomla-group (VIP).
As result this user:
1) get access to Premium content in secret VIP-group,
2) get some mark (name background)
3) can see module that available for VIP-users only and allow to get quick acess to VIP-group (just a link to group).

Problem: Any VIP-group can invite rendom user without your approval. But you will easy recognise him: if user is VIP-group's member, bu he has not VIP-mark and not in Joomla-group (VIP) - so hi is not a donater (was invited by somebody).

Thanks for sharing Dimitry.

Thanks Dimitri and Alex, both seem like good ideas and. I've not had a chance to test them yet, but will do over the coming weeks.

All the best.

Alright Jonny.

This is similar request/discussion I had here also restrict this also on profile custom fields access rights: https://stackideas.com/forums/set-up-different-es-user-profile-groups-with-joomla-user-groups-acl-control

https://stackideas.com/forums/view-certain-profile-fields-types-with-permission-restrictions

https://stackideas.com/forums/es-payplan-only-access-for-certain-es-profile-fields

https://stackideas.com/forums/exlude-non-reg-people-to-see-people-pages

part 2:

2. I want certain Joomla groups (ACL) to just be allowed/have the right to see certain %, or certain (custom) fields of a user profile groups/ ES fields like users contact info etc so I can control that certain Joomla user groups can only see certain ES user profile groups and/or certain ES user profile groups fields.

How do structure/do this best and pls give some suggestions/instructions?

This could be used in conjunction with PayPlans too and allowed/get access to certain user group types have different access to certain ES user group profiles and/or certain ES user groups user fields..

Hey ssnobben,

Thanks for head up on this, perhaps you can start a new thread on our forum regarding with your second question.

Hi Arlex you can look into some Joomla code from advance module manager or/and Advance template manager where you can restrict this with a combination of settings Joomla ACL/extension ACL doing this https://www.regularlabs.com/extensions/advancedtemplatemanager/tutorial

Cheers!

ie example:

Custom Fields Select the custom field(s) you want to assign to and enter the desired value(s).
Comparison Methods: Equals, Is not equal to, Contains, Contains one of, Does not contain, Begins with, Ends with, Less than, Greater than, Regular Expressions

User Group Levels
Selection Select the user groups to assign to.
Users Pro only
Selection Select the users to assign to.

Thanks for your input ssnobben, we will take a look of this.
