You can
decide which categories of
information about you will be visible to JJA Members and/or the
general public in the JJA Member Directories.
It takes several steps and it's a
bit confusing to find the page where you can adjust your privacy
settings, but easy to do so once you get there. (Sorry, but we didn't set this up!*)
Here's how:
- If you
aren't already logged in to your JJA account, login and then click
the "View Profile" link that
appears at the top right of the page. (this link does not appear before
you have logged in.)
- This will take you to the "My
Profile" page. Once you are there, click on the "Privacy" link that appears in the first section
of the main page, under the "Edit Profile" button.
- This will
take you to a page that shows your current privacy settings-- but you
can't EDIT
them on THIS page, to do so, you must
click on
the "Edit Profile" button that appears ON the PRIVACY page.
- OK! Now
you are on the page where you can CHANGE your privacy settings, and it
should be pretty evident how to do so....
For each category of
profile information shown in the far left column, click on the
appropriate column:
- If you click on "Anybody" (blue globe icon), anybody
--that's right-- who comes to the website will be able to see this
information. It will be shown in BOTH the Public Directory AND the
Members Directory.
- If you click on "Members" (little people icon) other JJA
Members will be able to see this information in your profile in the
Members Directory. But it will not be shown in the Public
Directory.
- If you click on "No Access" (red X) only authorized
JJA administrators will be able to view this information. It will also
be visible to you when you login and view your own "My Profile" page.
It will not be visible in either the
Public or Members Directory.
Be sure the "Allow to Show Profile" box at the top of the profile edit page is CHECKED if you want your profile to appear in the directory. Uncheck this box only if you do not want your name or any other information about you to appear in the directory.
TO SEE YOUR PROFILE AS OTHERS WILL SEE IT
It's
also a bit confusing to figure out how to check that your privacy
settings are the way you want them. This is because when you are logged
in to your account, you will see everything that is in your profile.
- Some of this
information--such as "Membership Details"-- is never visible to anyone
except you and authorized JJA administrators.
- To see
how your profile
currently appears to OTHER MEMBERS who are logged in to the site, click
on the link "My Directory
Profile" that appears in the first line under the heading "My Profile"
(to do this, you must be logged in and have navigated to the "My
Profile" page-- see
above)
