I tried to put disabled=”disabled” for the email part.
I also tried to remove the whole email thingy.
Both ways doesn’t work. It will show “ERROR: Please enter an e-mail address.” when I pressed update profile.
Any ideas how to achieve that? Thanks.

This may be too late for the OP, but this worked for me:

In my customized form-user-edit.php:

1. Disable the normal Input (as the OP did):
<input type=”text” name=”email” id=”email” value=”<?php bbp_displayed_user_field( ‘user_email’, ‘edit’ ); ?>” disabled=”disabled” class=”regular-text” tabindex=”<?php bbp_tab_index(); ?>” />

2. Add a Hidden Input, which Inputs the existing Email value.
<input type=”hidden” name=”email” id=”email” value=”<?php bbp_displayed_user_field( ‘user_email’, ‘edit’ ); ?>” />

If you look at the bbpress file: bbpress/includes/common/template.php, at lines 1621 and 1622, you can see that this is how the User_ID was entered (ie, via a Hidden input).

For me, so far so good. I hope this was of some help. –Bill
