Check-in Badges
Add custom profile fields to check-in badges. You can now include custom profile fields on your check-in badges. With this feature, you can further customize badge templates to display the information that you need. For more information, see Add Custom Profile Fields to a Badge Template.
For example, some parents may request that photos taken of their child not be shared outside of the congregation. You can create a custom profile field for this preference, then include it on the check-in badge to allow everyone to see this information.
To get started, create a new check-in badge template, or edit an existing one. Then click +Add Custom Field to select from the custom profile fields that you've already created.
