In Coworks, you can set default Directory Privacy settings for your community. These settings will determine if new members can be viewed by other members in the Directory, and how much (if any) of their contact information is displayed. You can choose to show or hide members’ email addresses and phone numbers in the directory, based on your preferences.

Note: Any changes to your default Directory Privacy settings will not affect existing members in your community. They will only be applied to any new members who are added.

How to set your default Directory Privacy settings:

  1. Log in to the Coworks staff panel

  2. Click the Community tab in the left side navigation bar
    ​​

  3. Select Directory from the options on the left
    ​​

  4. In the Privacy section, adjust the toggles based on your preferred privacy settings for members in your directory
    ​​

    1. "Show Member by default in Mobile App Directory" determines whether members will show in the Directory in the member app to be seen by other members

    2. "Show member’s phone number by default in the Mobile App Directory" will determine if members’ phone numbers will be visible to each other in the Directory

    3. "Show member’s email by default in the Mobile App Directory" controls whether members’ email addresses will be visible to each other in the Directory
      ​​

  5. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page when finished to save your settings.

You can also view or edit the privacy settings for any existing members in your community, if needed.

Happy Coworking!
