Hide the Email Field Under Account Settings – Login Information

Introduction

By default, BuddyBoss does not provide an option to hide the Email field under Account Settings in the Login Information section. You can use a simple CSS snippet to hide this field for all users.

Custom Workaround

Follow these steps:

1. Go to BuddyBoss > Theme Options
2. Under Custom Codes, enable CSS
3. Append the following code:

.bb-bp-settings-content label[for="email"],

.bb-bp-settings-content input[type="email"] {

    display: none !important;

}

4. Save changes

Note: Any modifications are considered as custom work already. Know more about our Support policy here: https://buddyboss.com/support-policy/

Troubleshooting and FAQs

Q: Will hiding the Email field affect login functionality?

A: No, this only hides the field visually. Users can still log in with their registered email.

Q: Can I hide the Email field for only certain user roles?

A: CSS alone cannot restrict visibility by user role. Custom code or plugin functionality would be required.

Q: The CSS doesn’t seem to work. What should I do?

A: Clear your browser cache and any caching plugins. If the issue persists, submit a ticket to the support team for assistance.

Q: Does this also hide the email field on the registration page?

A: No, this CSS only affects the Account Settings > Login Information section.
