Allow the Public and your Members to View or Join a List/Committee

Updated

You GrowthZone software provides you the opportunity to display lists & committees on your public web page and the InfoHub. For example, you may wish to display your staff or Board of Directors on your website. If you choose to display members of the list, the following information will be displayed:

  • Name
  • Organization Name
  • Phone Number
  • Email
  • A contact's bio (from the More Info tab)

 

See Display your Board of Directors List Publicly for a walk through of how to show a list/committee publicly. 

 

NOTE: If you do not wish to display the phone number or email you can mark those as "internal use only" on the contact's overview tab.  

 

Allow the Public to View or Join a List

  1. For the desired list/committee, select the General Tab.
  2. In the Public Display Options section, select the Allow External Use option. This will allow you to display the list on a public webpage by creating a public module for it. See Publish GrowthZone Content to Your Website for more information.

  3. If you also wish the public to be able to join this list/committee, select Allow Public Subscribers. When this option is selected, this list/committee can be included on your membership application (see View/Create Your Membership Application Form), and you will be able to create a subscription widget to place on your website if desired; see How to Generate GrowthZone Widget HTML for more information on creating widgets for your website. NOTE: Enabling Allow Public Subscribers will automatically enable Allow External Use; this is a requirement of allowing the public to subscribe to a list.
