Review directory and contact visibility

The page includes settings to:

  • Allow users to hide or show their contact details in the Members module.
  • Show contact details by default when a new member is created.
  • Show inactive users in the Members module, based on their individual show/hide setting.

Review these together with the individual member’s directory settings. Appearing in the directory is separate from having an active account. For individual changes, see Manage member access and visibility.

For visibility between groups in the member directory, see Member Groups and Can View.

Review status and automatic email settings

Additional controls include:

  • Moving a member to an active group will set the member active if not already so.
  • Send auto email to newly added members.
  • Send auto email to users moved from inactive to active groups.
  • Send auto email to users whose status changes from inactive to active.

Check these settings before adding members or making bulk updates so the intended account and email behaviour is clear. Member import is temporarily unavailable.

Frequently asked questions

Does allowing profile editing make every field editable?

No. Review the specific fields selected under User Information, Job Detail, Address and Contact Details, then check the Profile page with a member account. Confirm ownership of synchronised fields before enabling changes.

Why might activating several members send emails?

This page has automatic-email options for newly added members and certain inactive-to-active changes. Review those options before bulk updates so the resulting account and email behaviour is intended.
