Dear Donna,
You will probably be getting many replies on this one. I hope no one is
rude, but yes, this was one of the specific directives given when the access
was first given to the Ordinance Index online. I don't know where to find
the paperwork on this unfortunately. Perhaps someone on the list kept it.
This is intended only for the member's use. If they are a member they can
easily get the information needed from the ward clerk. I hope you have just
been typing the password in for them and not giving yours out to others. I
see nothing wrong with this as long as the password is kept confidential and
used only for the help of other members. I have done that to let people
know what is available and then they have gotten their own number and
password. Carrie Taylor

This is not TempleReady! Using your user name and password allows a member
access to temple ordinance dates in the Ordinance Index [not TempleReady]
The ordinance index is found in the IIGI (Internet International
Genealogical Index

I TOTALLY disagree!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would like to see a copy of that
directive! This is news to me, not allowing others to use our user name and
password to view ordinance index online??!!

I have let others use my user name and password many times without
hesitation and I will CONTINUE to do so if it encourages members to check
the ordinance index online.

Why would we put STUMBLING BLOCKS for church members when we can help member
experience the IIGI, by using the Ordinance Index online, with our user
name and password. The member will feel the spirit of the work and have
success.

The member should then be encouraged to contact membership clerk for their
Membership Record Number and Confirmation Date. I have helped quite a few
members register once they experienced the IIGI. Why make it more difficult
for the members?????

Personally, I do not see a problem with someone using my user name and
password, if it encourages members to get started checking ordinance work
online, all the better!

There is no security loss in others using our password.. Comments
anyone!!!?? Not trying to be nigglypiggily [sp] but there is a Spirit of
the Law and there is the Letter of the Law.
