Our users have been changing the 'occupation' and 'location' fields to less than respectable values. We are running 7.5.3 and would like to know how to stop normal users from changing the fields in the 'fields' tab.

Thanks,

Wayne

Couple of options. Those fields are censored, so if they are just adding some bad words, then you can use the censor list to combat some of it.

If you just want to not allow them to edit it altogether, then a quick way would be to modify the editbasic template file and either remove or comment out the sections that you don't want them to edit.
