バグ：「Editable after signup」のUserFieldが「Show on signup」を強制的に有効にする

[Moin]

I don’t think it’s a bug. It’s intended to work that way. But I agree it would be helpful if this was possible

@Moin

But I think there is still a problem: you are forced to allow either editing or showing at signup.

discourse/frontend/discourse/admin/components/admin-user-fields-form.gjs at d82dc69d1d4cbf7dd5ed449ae299908282637b3f · discourse/discourse · GitHub

 @action
  setEditable(value, { set }) {
    set("editable", value);

    if (value === false) {
      set("show_on_signup", true);
    }
  }

It is possible to create a field with all options disabled because you don’t need to change the editable setting for that. But once you change it once, there is no way back to this configuration.

Based on the pull request FEATURE: Allow hiding user fields on signup form by Drenmi · Pull Request #34672 · discourse/discourse · GitHub this was an intentional decision:

Fields that are optional but not editable need to be on the signup form, or they can never be filled in

I wonder if the use case to have the field filled by staff was not taken into account
