if i sign up 1000 members, each attending 1 of ten classes named one through 10 and specified on their registration as user meta, can i create a class list for a teacher that allows that teacher to edit their profile, preferably a few fields might only be editable by teacerh and not studetn – only viewable – like their grades?
Guess – I do not want to make teachers admins, but i could give a teacher 1 permission to see class 1 list and class 1 edit profile forms page..using s2 member and custom capabilities..so the forms might only be accessible by that teacher (as long as formidable forms doesnt override.
I realized that if the teacher is logged in – i dont want the form calling teachers info to edit studetn stuff…

This isn't possible without advanced custom code. You would need a developer on this one in order to define which entries are editable by which teachers. Here's the hook your developer could use:

how about a different form for each class - user registrtion registers for school, redirects to form for class chosen from dropdown....teacher has ability to edit class students based on s2 member role ----the roles in s2 member can be increased indefinitely and show up as choices in formidable...with User Role Editor you can make an s2member role independant of all other roles (instead of cumulative ) this would work fine for smaller schools i guess with less than 10 or 20 teachers, I have 172...managing that many forms might be miserable....thought I would suggest for others though anyway
