Hi,
this is not possible natively, but maybe there is a workaround,

We need to understand what mean "unavailable" status (for example this is set by a field, this is set by a usergroup or it mean offline)?

This position is set by two possible conditions 1. Are you available to Mentor - yes/no checkbox - That would mean mentees could 'see' the mentor exists but that he is presently unavailable 2. Number of mentees - max of 5 - when Mentor is checked as Available, but has reached max number of mentees,,,,at present.

This would be a 'nice to have' option to keep the search populated with mentors, even if they are currently unavailable.

Would some instance of this type of option be possible?

Thanks

Hi,
I have found a solution.
You can use HTML delimiter field type with some plugin like sourcerer (https://www.regularlabs.com/extensions/sourcerer) to add a style different for each user based on field value.

Try to follow these steps:
- Download and install Sourcerer plugin
- Create an HTML Delimiter field hidden into registration and edit profile pages like screenshot, with this code:

{source}

<?php

global $JSNLIST_DISPLAYED_ID;

if($JSNLIST_DISPLAYED_ID) $owner_id=$JSNLIST_DISPLAYED_ID;

else $owner_id=JRequest::getVar( 'id' , JFactory::getUser()->id ); 

$user = JsnHelper::getUser($owner_id);

$class = 'profile'.substr(md5($user->username),0,10);

if($user->available_for_mentoring || $user->no_of_mentees_at_present > 4) echo '<style>.'.$class.' .jsn-l-top{opacity:0.2}</style>';

?>

{/source}

- Add this field to show in User List

This field should show a CSS code that make user "grey out" when available_for_mentoring is equal to "No" (value is 1) or no_of_mentees_at_present is greater than 4

NOTE: this code is not tested and not supported, it is only for example purpose.

This looks like a good possibility!
I'll test it out and let you know.

Thanks!

Hi,
I have removed condition that remove field "Availability css".

Of course this field need to be hidden so I have added in your custom.scss this code:

.availability_css{display:none;}

That has worked! Many thanks as ever!
