Page Content Sections - Board Section

Use the Board Section when you want a page to display your club's active board positions in the order you have set in Board Positions.

What this section is for

This section is designed for pages such as:

• Board of Directors pages
• leadership pages
• committee or governance overview pages that focus on current board positions

Helpful detail:

• This section does not let you pick individual board positions one by one.
• It automatically pulls the full active board-position list from Board Positions.

Fields in the Board Section

Headline

Use Headline for the visible heading at the top of the section.

Helpful detail:

• If you leave Headline blank, the section simply starts with the intro content or the board list.

Headline Level

Use Headline Level to choose whether the headline is displayed as H1, H2, H3, or H4.

Helpful details:

• the section defaults to H2 if no headline level is set
• most pages should have only one H1
• H2 or H3 is usually the safest choice for section headings

Intro Content

Use Intro Content for optional text above the board listing.

This is a good place for:

• a short introduction to the board
• election or service information
• a note about how members can contact leadership
• context that helps visitors understand the board structure

Helpful detail:

• This field uses the rich-text editor, so you can include formatted text and links.

Important behavior to know

• This section does not include a separate Section Title field.
• This section also does not include its own Active toggle.
• If you want to remove it from a page, remove the section from the page content area.
• The section pulls only board positions marked Active.
• Board positions are displayed in ascending sort_order, so lower numbers appear first.

What visitors see on the website

When this section appears on the website:

• the optional headline appears first
• the intro content appears below the headline
• each active board position is listed in order
• each listing shows the board position title
• if a member is assigned, the member's display name appears
• if no member is assigned, the page shows Board position currently unfilled.
• optional description, phone, email, mailing address, and extra information can also appear

Helpful detail:

• The current board template does not display member photos.

How contact details are chosen

Board contact information can come from more than one place.

Helpful details:

• If a board position has its own permanent email, phone, or address entered on the position, that information is used first.
• If position-specific contact details are not entered, the page can fall back to the assigned member's contact details.
• Member contact details only appear from the member profile when that member's board privacy settings allow them to appear on the board page.

How to add a Board Section to a page

1. Create or update your board positions in Board Positions.
2. Mark the positions you want shown as Active.
3. Set the Sort Order so the positions appear in the right sequence.
4. Assign members to positions where appropriate.
5. Open the page you want to edit.
6. Go to the Page Content area.
7. Click Add new section.
8. Choose Board of Directors Page.
9. Add a Headline, Headline Level, and Intro Content if needed.
10. Save the page.

Practical planning ideas

• Keep position titles consistent and easy to understand.
• Review the sort order whenever officers change so the page still reads in a sensible order.
• Use Intro Content for a short explanation instead of trying to place all details inside each position.
• If a position should show a club-owned email address instead of a member's personal address, enter a permanent email on the board position.
• Check board privacy settings on member profiles if expected contact details are missing.

If the board section is not behaving as expected

Check these items first:

• the page was saved after your edits
• the board positions you expect to see are marked Active
• the Sort Order values are correct
• the member is assigned to the correct board position
• missing contact details are not being hidden by board privacy settings
