Can admins unlock locked fields (like last name) so congregants can edit them in Church Center?

Verified answer · Added July 7, 2026

Answer

Name fields are permanently locked for congregants regardless of settings; admins can toggle other built-in fields to editable via People > Configuration > Church Center settings, but must update names themselves on the admin side.
