Creating your first directory
Adding a new directory
To add a new directory, click on the Add new button in the top right of your dashboard.
In the popup box that appears:
- Choose a name for your directory (you can always change this later)
- Choose a template
- Click Add to create the directory
You can create as many directories as you want; your plan will be calculated based on the total number of profiles across all directories. Our free plan gives you 25 profiles with no time limit and access to all features except the option to offer file uploads to your members, which is a paid feature.
Choosing a template
The template you choose will set the default information you collect from your members, but you can easily edit this using the Form Designer. So just choose one that's closest to what you need.
These are the default fields for each template:

Managing your directory
After you create your first directory, you will be taken to your dashboard where your directory will be listed under the Directories tab. You can click on the directory name to manage profiles, your directory design and other settings. However we recommend you start by customising the form that you or your members will use to add profiles.
