Search¶

The page to search for members has been turned into a “global search” within LionsBase. At the moment, this returns members and clubs based on your search criteria.

As such, the menu entry (and its symbol) has changed from “Find members” to “Search”:

Multiple District / Districts / Regions / Zones¶

The pages for the multiple district, the various districts, regions and zones have been enhanced to give you useful information right away:

Namely:

• instead of a “Clubs” link, you read the number of clubs in the corresponding district, region or zone;

• before even navigating to a district, a region or a zone, you see the number of clubs and members at the corresponding level of your organisation.

Profile Page¶

We slightly reworked how the Lions function [code] is presented. So instead of showing it after the name of the club (which was a bit odd), we now show it without any abbreviation on top of the name. This is best depicted with a screenshot:

Actual changes regarding handling of “titles”:

• at the beginning of the menu, link to the profile only shows full name of the authenticated member, without any title;

• (as depicted above) the header part of a profile page shows the Lions function, if any, or the academic title (prefix) otherwise; no title (suffix) such as “M.Sc.” is shown anymore in the header;

• within the various properties, below, the titles (prefix/suffix) are shown.

Lions Business Card¶

When you open your personal profile page from the drawer menu:

You may now show your personal “Lions business card” as a QR-code to share with others, typically during (international) conferences when you tap the share icon, top right of your own profile:

This shows a QR-code embedding your business card that anyone may easily scan and add to their address book:

Following pieces of information are part of that Lions business card:

• full name, incl. any Lions function code (PDG, …);

• academic title, if any;

• primary email address (the email address associated to the highest function you hold is used. If not available, it falls back to your primary email address);

• private mobile phone number;

• name of your district and club (incl. your club’s website);

• your LCI ID;

• link to download your official photo (it cannot be embedded right away due to length limitations with the QR specifications).

  Edit: since Version 10.5.0, the photo is embedded as an URI in the QR code. That means that any modern smartphone should be able to download it transparently and display it in the address book.
