# Admin only option

 * I know that the Admin Only option will hide a field from being displayed on a
   property details page to the general public.
 * However, it seams that an admin only field is also not allowed to be accessed
   in code unless logged in as an administrator.
 * For example, lets say I have a field called “xyz”. I don’t want this field to
   show in the list of fields on a property. However, let’s say I want to display
   different text based on the value of “xyz”. If xyz is set to admin only then 
   when a non-admin visitor hits the page that text I want to display will not display
   because the value of xyz is empty.
 * Is there not a way of not displaying a particular field, yet still be able to
   access the value of a field?
 * If not, then could we add an option of “Hide in Field List” in the Advanced Settings.
   So that way a field could be hidden from the draw_stats and the field data could
   still be accessed and/or displayed elsewhere.
 * P.S. Any chance you all will bring back the forum that got removed the site redesign?
   With all of the old posts that contained a numerous amount of answers?

 * You know what, don’t bother answering the question.
 * I have one client that uses this plugin and it will be the last client that I
   recommend use it.
 * You all remove the forum on purpose and with answers to a lot of previous asked
   questions? Why? Maybe it was to force people to used premium support, only you
   all know.
 * And for the rest, does the plugin work? Technically, yes. Works best if you intend
   on using it with one of their two themes. If you are planning on not using their
   themes or need modifications, brace yourself for a bumping ride.

 * Hello Patrick,
 * Please use our [Feedback](http://feedback.usabilitydynamics.com/forums/95259-wp-property)
   page for adding you ideas.
 * We decided to disabled forum since it mostly duplicates the current one.
    However
   we may bring it back in future but only for premium support.
 * Regards.
