Members Directory Dropdown Not Showing All Options From Form

    Hi,

    I have a Member Directory with a dropdown filter that I would like to show all the options it contains in the control panel for the members. Yes, I am aware that it shows the option once it is selected by a member at least once (not null) but I would want to show available options so that my audience can see for themselves to jog their memor.

    How can I get the search filter dropdown to show all options?

    Thanks! My hack would be to make some fake members with it selected but I don’t want to do that unless there is no other options.

    Hi @jacktsewest,

    This feature isn’t available in UM as this will be not useful. If you allow user to select Null Options ( means no users saved this value yet ), you will not get any user is the search result certainly. So basically you are increasing not useful options in directory, increasing page loading speed and reducing the member directory search speed + efficiency. So UM only shows the options that has at least one user saved. Hope it’s clear.

    If you still want to force to show all the values, please create a test user from Users menu inside your dashboard and save all those null values in that test users profile. Now login as that test user and in his account page choose to not show him in directory, make his profile private etc. Then the null options will show up in directory filter since one user ( this test user) saved those options, but this test user won’t be visible to directory or outside because of the account settings applied. Hope this trick is clear.

    Thanks.
