Introduction


Country filtering helps you find organizations and opportunities faster. If you run organizations and opportunities in multiple countries and you want to find them faster, you can always toggle country filtering on (and off).


How to Toggle Country Filtering On and Off


To start, click [Settings] in the left-hand sidebar from your homepage.



Go to [Country and Maps Preferences] under the Usage and Account section



Then,

  1. To allow country filtering for opportunities, click Per country filtering allowed for an opportunity (or its button)
  2. To allow country filtering for organizations, click Per country filtering allowed for an organization (or its button)
  3. Hit Save

Requiring Address Selection


To use the country filter, you need to ensure that addresses are filled in. Require address selection for all users when creating an organization or an opportunity.


If you set the address selection as not required for opportunities and/or organisations, those fields will then allow virtual addresses.

Note: If the opportunity or the organization is in rural areas (or informal settlements), there's a chance that the mapping solution won't be able to find the specific location of the opportunity or organization. The user must fill out the address information.

To do this, simply toggle on the Address selection is required for the creation of an opportunity and Address selection is required for the creation of an organization under [Country and Maps Preferences].

Note: Ensure your moderators are checking addresses to avoid missing any information.
