We have some flairs related to our trust levels. So if users can choice their own flairs, we just can’t give flairs because they lose their value (!) I don’t understand the point on this and maybe I’m missing the option to disable user choicing flairs and leaving the system use them aligned with t…

Looking over settings. You would need to remove group flairs in the group settings for Trust Levels. Then setup the Trust Flairs in the Theme Component for each Trust Level you want flairs on and choose the position you want it to display on the Avatar. The Actual group flair choice in the user p…

You might want to consider this theme component. It gives Trust Level flairs and still allows other flairs. [image] Trust-Level Avatar Flair Theme component This theme component allows an admin to add flair to user avatars based on the user’s trust level…

[image] Dan DeMontmorency: Otherwise I think you can turn off choosing flairs by disabling choosing primary group. That hasn’t been the case for a long time actually. It used to be that the flair was directly tied to the primary group, but nowadays the flair option in your preferences can be …

Sorry but that’s not fix the actual problem where people can select “Trust Level 3” in Trust Level 1. And disabling the selector, the avatar flair and plus editing every single user manually is not good as turning default option that nobody can’t select the group (more than staff maybe) in order to…

To confirm is it this user preference setting thatvis causing the issue? As I do not see Trust kevels as options [Screenshot_20230320-141422] The Customization > Theme component I linked for I don’t think gives users options to select different Trust Level groups for flairs. After a quick look …

Easy, could be a missunderstanding from myself too because I’m not an expert and I’m learning all the time :folded_hands: I’m trying to give a flair to LVL 1, 2 and 3 (we don’t have plans for allowing LVL 4 because it’s redundant for our purposes ATM) and we see that core allow that so easy.
