hi toby,
you can change the view_permitted? method of the user model so that it
reads the role of the current user and determines whether he is
allowed to see this field:
def view_permitted?(field)
if (field.to_s == "address")
# admins should see this field
return true if acting_user.administrator?
# no one except owner should see this field
return false if self != acting_user
end
bye,
Peter
