Private Profile

Is there a way to keep people from putting their profiles on private? I want to allow folks to mute other people, which they can’t do if those people make their profiles private.

Thanks!

Users can mute any user from their own preferences.

For example: https://meta.discourse.org/my/preferences/users

I don’t believe this works on somebody whose profile is ticked to “hide.”

I’m able to discover users with hidden profiles in the “Muted” input pictured above, so I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.

No, that’s not correct – you can Ignore or Mute anyone from your own profile page.

Note that Ignore itself is a trust level 2 user privilege though, and Mute is a trust level 1 user privilege.
