Must know
- Available when your club has the Custom Information feature (see What is the Features page?). For a club migrated from CCM whose Community Builder had its own fields, the import switches it on and those fields are already on this page.
- Club fields are your club’s own lines on the member record, like CCM’s Community Builder fields. Members see them on My Information, in the tab you choose.
- They are not the same as Members → Questions. Those are checkout questions, asked per league or membership (see How do I add custom questions?).
- Managing club fields needs Edit Settings (the Curling Administrator).
- Deleting a field also deletes every member’s answer to it. To hide a field and keep its answers, turn Published off.
1
Add a field
Click Add field. In New club field fill Title and, for French-speaking members, Title (French). Pick the Type: Text, Text area, Drop-down, Multi-select, Yes / No, Date, Email, Web address or Number. You cannot change the type once the field is created.
2
Choose where it shows
Under Tab, pick Personal Info, Contact Info, Emergency Info or Curling Club Info to put the field in that section of the member’s record. To give it a section of its own, choose Another tab… and type a Tab name. That section appears after Curling Club Info.

Fill in the details
For Drop-down and Multi-select, list the Options, one per line. To give an option a French wording, write it as English;;;Français (for example Right;;;Droite): French-language members see the French half, everyone else the English, and the answer is stored the same either way. For Number, set a Minimum and Maximum if you need them. Help text shows under the field, and Help text (French) is what French-speaking members see instead.

Set the switches
- Required: a member editing their profile must fill it in.
- Profile: shown on the member’s own profile.
- Registration: asked in the signup wizard. You can only turn it on for a published field.
- Edit: the member can change it. Off means only staff can.
- Searchable: a filter and a column in the member directory, when the directory is on.
- Published: unpublished fields are hidden everywhere and keep their answers.
In the classic view
The classic view of the same page is Community Builder’s Field Management screen, with CB’s columns: Name · Title · Type · Tab · Required · Profile · Registration · Edit · Searchable · Published · Order.- New opens New Field. The form has the Title (French), the Description and the Description (French). To edit a field, tick its row and press Edit, or click its Name. The form has Save, Save & Close and Cancel. The Name is made from the title when the field is first saved.
- Click a tick or cross in any of the six switch columns to flip that switch.
- Tick rows and press Publish, Unpublish or Delete to act on several fields at once.
- The Order column has up and down arrows.
