Printable and Downloadable Custom Reports e.g. Member Directory
Please make the custom report layout feature printable. This would work well for printable directories, group information, etc.
Our group is trying to make a directory in a PDF format that is searchable and may be printed by those who prefer print.

Allow download of formatted report in searches using the custom layout.
I love using the custom search result layout, but I would like to be able to download a PDF formatted version of the search using the custom layout for my board members who don't want to actually go into WA. (Along the same lines, it would be nice if the mobile app layout could also be customized by search, but I realize that is probably very difficult to do) -

A printable members directory is essential to our members. There should also be an option to forward it via email.

We have a page where members can see names, email addresses and phone numbers. We would like to add a print button where a member could print an up-to-date membership listing. Currently, we need to create a new pdf document which members can download. Problem is that we need to keep updating it.

I am trying to develop a directory for staff and members. We have both that like a printed copy. I have developed a mail merge, but every time I update the data in WA, I have to run another export. This is a waste of my time. If this isn't resolved, we may leave WA. I need it to be as simple as possible for when I hand this over to someone else to maintain.

This functionality is essential to an HOA. We provide all paid members with a printed directory as it contains a lot of other information that members use throughout the year. We have been contemplating not renewing with WA for this reason. There are a lot of things that I like about WA, but this feature is essential. It should be something that is offered at a bare minimum as an export.

I would like to be able to export the adv search with custom layout to excel in a similar format to what is displayed on screen.

I would like to be able to export members as an actual directory (like an old fashioned phone book) in pdf form. Any plans for this possibility?

Please make the member directory printable with name, address, phone #s, email and url.
We have several associations that want to have a printable directory. Crazy but true! :-) -

Given our member demographics, we have 100's of members who do not use computers and we must provide them with a printed directory. Knowing that WA does not support an export of its online directory, we created custom fields (example: Include phone in printed directory: Yes/No) for all our membership privacy preferences. This way we can export data from members>list>export and then manipulate the Excel spreadsheet to delete data that members do not want in a directory. Then we use Word to mail merge the modified data into our preferred format for our printed directory. This is an extremely tedious approach, but it works. The major downside is that we cannot also have an online directory (!) because members become confused by having both custom-field privacy options and, of course, the system privacy settings. So, sadly, we have no online directory for our members. This situation is quite unacceptable for a member management software system.
Please, Wild Apricot, as a minimum, provide an Excel export of member data that takes into consideration how a member has set their system online privacy. This means if a member marks in their system privacy settings that their phone number is not to be shown, then it is not included in the export. Then we can have our online directory AND we can produce a printable directory using the privacy-compliant Excel export. And we can delete our custom privacy fields!

BTW has anyone found an external resource who can set up a program for this?

Many of our members prefer a printed directory rather than using online. There is no way to export in a user friendly format for a directory. The export feature still needs to be translated into a printable format. The results layouts allow a nice version but this can't be exported in the same format. Admin use only for us.

Yes, please - I don't know of anyone who wouldn't benefit from an exportable/printable directory. We are a membership organization and our list needs to be exportable to a csv/Excel file so our members can download it and use it for email and mail campaigns.
Having the option to export or print directories in different formats would add value to the program.

Downloadable member directory that includes PHOTOS

Joel Dawson commented
Even though we aim to be electronic, people still like to have a printed directory. They still use the one from several years ago and would like new ones for our present membership. The photo is an essential part of the directory entry.

To have the ability to download the member directory (including photos) as a printable directory.

Support means that you can always use simple internet browser printing capabilities.

Pat commented
We need this too. I don't see a print icon either??? Support said use use right mouse click - print or ctrl-p to print. Does that not work if membership is large?

Provide an "Export / Download" function from the Directory page. So when a users searches, or filters, the membership to display a certain list of members, they can then download that list to excel.

When you said "I understand how to export a current copy of the member database using the button on the members & contacts page. " what button where you referring to? I would love to know where this button is!
