Keeping Addresses Private

4

Some members of our congregation want to keep their mailing addresses private on Rock, but still want to receive our church mail. Is there a way to keep their mailing addresses viewable to only the Administrators of Rock? So when they pull the addresses to send out the newsletter, the "private" addresses will be pulled as well, but no one else can access them.

    I'm pretty sure the only way you could do this would be to modify the security on the Family Members block (on the Person Details page), which would affect everything in that block (Family members, etc). Address by itself isn't securable that I can find, and even if you wanted to go that far you'd still have to deal with searching for addresses in the search bar, modifying the address data select, etc. That said, there could also be something really obvious I'm just missing ;-)

    Hi! Trying to bring this question back to life. Is modifying the security still the only way of accomplishing this, I would like to be able to hide the addresses in the Group Toolbox on the Roster. Does anyone know this is possible?

      Wait, this is now an entirely different question... you originally (I thought) were wanting to hide addresses internally on Rock, and here you're (I think) asking about the Group Leader toolbox on the public site. If that's what you're asking, you can hide the addresses there by modifying the Lava that block uses.

      I have the same question as Juan with a couple exceptions. We don't want ANY group member information visible to anyone other than the Group Leader(s). Is it possible to obtain that by modifying the Lava for that block as well? If so, could you explain exactly what in the Lava must be removed and what must remain and/or be added?

      If you want to remove it being viewable in groups on external website

      Under you theme directory we edited (or copy to another file and update the reference in that block)
      /Assets/Lava/GroupDetail.lava

      And remove
      {% assign memberAddress = member.Person | Address:'Home' %}
      {% if memberAddress != '' %}
      <br />{{ member.Person | Address:'Home' }}
      {% endif %}

      This will prevent Home addresses being viewable to all the group

      To make it viewable by leaders only you will have to make create a new lava section
      { % if leader. Etc %}
      And keep that code block in for that
