So, would you like to completely remove this field, or allow it at the registration level, and disallow at the profile editing level?

If you just don't need this field, you could make it a hidden type... If you'd like to make it read-only at the profile editing, modify templates/user_dataform.html and paste the following tag:

{$editable}

in the code which holds the "occupation" value, resp.:

<input type="text" name="occupation" maxlength="100" size="20" value="{$occupation}" {$editable} class="textForm" style="width:200px;" />

Ok then... In addition to the above code, try to paste the code below into bb_plugins_user.php and let me know the results. Tried it on my end and it all worked.

if($action=='editprefs'){
$moDBValue[$dbUserSheme['user_occ'][1]]=$userData[$dbUserSheme['user_occ'][0]];
${$dbUserSheme['user_occ'][2]}=$userData[$dbUserSheme['user_occ'][0]];
}

Not quite sure what do you mean, but it all could be done at the add-on's level. You may verify the posted data in bb_plugins.php on the condition like

if($action=='editprefs'){
....
}
and then you could supply a default value for the $_POST['occupation'] there, if someone is trying to post a fake/wrong value and so on.

I.e. in this bb_plugins.php you could catch the incoming parameters, verify, parse and re-assign them, before the core script executes.
