Re: "Send a Message" Function on LCR
Is there anyway to grant the high priest group leader the ability to send a message to the entire high priest group? He used to be able to do this from the bishopric calling that he had, but now he cannot. I am the ward clerk, and can do this, but he would like to be able to do this himself. Can I somehow grant him access?

No. Access to this function is limited to the bishopric and clerks. This is based on calling and is not a permission that can be granted.jgmathis wrote:Is there anyway to grant the high priest group leader the ability to send a message to the entire high priest group?

He already has the ability to do this. But instead of the send a message through the LCR he should use the LDS.org Directory and click the "Email all High Priests..." link on the High Priests organization page.jgmathis wrote:Is there anyway to grant the high priest group leader the ability to send a message to the entire high priest group?

He can also email all high priests through the LDS Tools app, under Organizations > High Priests.

Re: "Send a Message" Function on LCR
Hi,
I am a high priest group leader and I do not find the application tap in LCR to send a message to my group members. Is this how it is supposed to be or am I missing rights?

seems to indicate the link in question is in the directory, not LCR. Have you tried here?jdlessley wrote: ...

If that does not work, make sure your calling is registered as a standard calling rather than a custom calling.

Re: "Send a Message" Function on LCR
I think that directory link is there for all ward members, not just leaders.rmrichesjr wrote:If that does not work, make sure your calling is registered as a standard calling rather than a custom calling.

The link in LCR is just there for bishopric members, exec secretary and clerks, not for the auxiliaries.

Re: "Send a Message" Function on LCR
For what it's worth, here's what one assistant ward (membership) clerk (who is assigned to meet with the elders quorum) is able to see:
In LCR: Applications -> Send a Message -> Members -> High Priests Group brings up a form with names and a a hieroglyphic that seems to represent an email address for some of the names. Presumably, clicking on 'Select All' would select all members of the HP group, and a message could be sent.
In Directory: Ward Organizations -> High Priests shows an 'Email all High Priests' button or link that brings up a list of email addresses that can be copy-pasted into an email client.
Not wanting to inadvertently send an actual message, I stopped testing of those two paths at that point. Is there someone here who is a leader of a MP quorum or group can test the above link chains to determine empirically what options a High Priests Group should be able to use to send a message?

Re: "Send a Message" Function on LCR
A high priests group leader does not see the Applications menu in LCR, hence he cannot use the LCR Send a Message function. An assistant ward clerk does see Applications, so he has this option.rmrichesjr wrote:here's what one assistant ward (membership) clerk is able to see:

A high priests group leader sees the Directory option as described and is able to send messages that way.
