Overview
Attributes allow you to add values to agenda items, people profiles, and organization profiles. They can be used in a variety of ways on the Pathable app, including setting permissions and creating filtered views. Once you create an attribute, you will see an Edit page, where you can further edit that attribute to the settings that you'd like.
Appearance
- Label in Edit/View - the name of the attribute that will be seen when this attribute is being edited by an attendee or organization on the live site
- Label in Search - you can change the name of the attribute as it will appear in the search panel on the live site
- Help Text - you can add text to help explain what the attribute is to others.
- Checkboxes:
- Do not display on details page - select if you don't want the attribute to display on the live site
- Do not display on cards in lists - select if you don't want the attribute to show on an agenda, people or organization card

Security and Sync

- If selected, the attribute can't be edited by attendees
