CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I'm working with a membership site and want members to be able to list others that live nearby. I then want the member to be able to send an email to those in the search results, but at no time reveal their exact locations or email addresses.

I've started by adapting the existing custom Proximity search and have got as far as producing the search results (hiding all personal details other than names).What I'm wanting to do now is:

• adjust the results template to prevent the names of the matching members being active links to their membership details
• suppress the list of recipients' email addresses when the member chooses the 'email selected contacts' action

I've tried playing with Email.tpl and can remove the 'To:' addresses, but then the email can't be sent because the recipient addresses aren't being sent to the email procedure. I'm also not sure which file invokes Email.tpl  - I want to use a custom template rather than the standard one, but can't see where to do this.

Any pointers on where to look next or how to progress would be great.

Thanks in advance

OK, thanks. I had a nasty feeling it might involve substantive php changes...!
