I’m playing with custom fields and they’re great because I can store and read custom information using the API, which is a great way to integrate other parts of our user experience. For example, I can create a custom field that counts every time a user watches a webinar, and they earn a badge for watching 10 of them.
What I’d like is for that field to be visible, but not editable by the user.
In the above example, if I make the custom webinar count field visible to the user, they can edit it! I’d like them to know what the field is, but not be able to change it for themselves.
The other scenario I’m toying with is reward points that can be earned and redeemed and a custom field seems perfect, as long as the user can’t just edit it to whatever they like!
