The "Membership List" feature provides a method of creating a formatted selected list of members as a tab for members to access, or to be added to any News Item. This is useful for members wishing to contact another member or for identifying, say "Honorary Members", or a list of Hosts. When creating a list for public viewing, you need to be aware of your local privacy laws and ensure you have Members permission to publish their information.
There is a default ‘Members List’ automatically generated for each site’s Members Only area which you can amend. To find this in the Admin Menu, click on NEWS and scroll down the page until you see ‘view page’ on the Members List item. Click on this and then on ‘amend’. Select the ‘MB list’ tab.
To create a new Membership List , create a new News Page. Select ‘Add MB List’ which will create a default list.
Once in the MB List, click ‘Edit'.
On the left hand side , the Move Up/Down buttons allows you to move position of fields within the list
Below that is a list of fields that can be added to the list , selection criteria or sort criteria.
On the Right hand side
Columns – these are the fields that are listed in the report. You can also choose your own column headings.
Selection criteria – this allows you to include in your report a selection of the people on your membership list. The default is ‘BW status’ equals ‘Member’ which will select only Members and ignore Visitors or any other status. You can add more selection criteria by adding the field required into the selection criteria section, then setting the other entries. You can specify different comparisons e.g. 'not equals', 'more than' , less than'. As an example, to list all members who have registered an EBU number, you would click on selection criteria selection to highlight, then 'Add EBU' from the list on left hand side, select 'More than' as the comparison and enter 0 in the third box.
Sort criteria - this specifies the sequence of the list. You can specify more than one sort criteria. The list will be sorted in the sequence of the first criteria and within that in second , then subsequent criteria.
For each of the three sections , you need to be positioned in the section to add a new field to it. You do this by clicking on a row in the section to highlight it.
Format - this section allows you to define the format of your Membership List.
Click OK to save your list.
