This might be of no help, but there might be two things to try: First, check the admin side to see if the records are there and just have "Don't let anyone see me" flag active. Doesn't sound like what you describe (and most people don't activate this flag), but it is a quick first check. S...

You can try. I've seen that before where names of departed members show up, but if you keep poking around the site, the list seems to rebuild itself and the names will disappear. In other words, I'm not sure as the bug is reliable enough to be exploited for other purposes. :D I just found this &quo...

Sounds interesting! I know that when you add someone for a calling, it shows their full legal name and DOB, but it does not show their address or email address, so where do you get the new contact info at? If from the "normal user" side you access the ward directory you can get their cont...

Ah, the ever versatile resource calendar, you don't still use them just to schedule buildings do you ? Here's the trick: Use them like a Ward Blog (albeit a moderated on). A member submits his diary entry as a calendar item. Possible journal entries: "Missionary experiences" - When one occ...

I stumbled up this when looking at another website in our Stake with a less-than-dillegent Admin. Turns out that someone moved out of his ward several months ago, but was still listed as holding a calling. And guess what ? It listed that person's new contact information.

Here's a crazy idea for recording Home & Visiting Teaching via the ward website. 1) Set up Resource Calendars for Home Teaching and Visiting Teaching or go detailed and do one for each district. 2) Set up admins and e-mail notifications for HT/VT Leaders and/or District Supervisors. 3) People su...

So the Physical Facilities Rep is basically an unpaid middle-man between the local leaders(unpaid) and the Facilities Management Contact person (paid)... From talking to your "Rep", do they have enough requests to justify using software to keep track of it all ? Or is it a less intensive c...

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the whole
Adobe Flex thing, but isn't this mainly
web apps delivered via Flash ?

If so, it does explain why it takes
so long to load over dialup.

Client-side, how is it so revolutionary
compared to say Java ?

The other day I came across some demos of Maintenance Magament Software. Basically one was to keep track of a fleet of vehicles - gas mileage, repairs, etc. The other was more general purpose and covered air conditioners, elevators, and lawn care to name a few. The software was definitely geared to ...

Application startup is very slow with the new image. I have seen a few different instances of people double clicking on an application's icon, waiting for a while, giving up, double clicking it again, then eventually having to get rid of dialog boxes complaining that the application was already cra...
