Why a member's name or email sometimes looks masked

Members control how much of their name and email the public and fellow club members see (see Controlling Your Visibility). Your district role lets you see full member details within your remit — the clubs your office covers. Senior district officers see the whole district; a Division Director sees the clubs in their division; an Area Director sees the clubs in their area.

Outside that remit, you see only what a member has chosen to show the public or their fellow club members. So a member of a club in another area may appear with a shortened name or hidden email. Likewise, viewing an unrelated club's public page is governed by that club's rules, not your district title. A masked name or hidden email in these cases is expected behaviour, not a bug.

Tips for District Officers

  • Keep club data synchronized with Toastmasters International
  • Regular communication with club officers
  • Use analytics to identify clubs needing support
  • Plan COT training well in advance
  • Document processes for your successor
