Good Morning all you wise people, I have a question that I need someone to address. I am a paster and am building a database for our church and wanted to spruce up my inputs by hiding fields that are not applicable. For instance, if the person is not married, hide the wedding date field, or if a person is not a member, hide the membership date field and so on…is there a way to do this? I know I can hide views but I just want to hide a field in a view since the rest could still be applicable.
Thanks,
Pastor Dick Bickings

Hey @Richard7

If you still wish to show fields that don’t have a value, you would need to setup display rules on each field within the details view based on your above mentioned logic.
