Hi, I don’t have a Merit badge counselor search option on the profile in Scoutbook+. How to make sure it shows up so I can find info of the counselor based on the first and last name only.

@ForumShah - what is your registered position in my.scouting.org ?
A major focus of the migration to Scoutbook Plus is to have positions mirror the positions shown in My.Scouting to ensure positions were reflected accurately in both platforms. The main purpose it to honor the guidance of our charter organizations and the positions they approve. Therefore, Scoutbook Plus does not use Legacy Scoutbook positions. Registered positions are used to provide base permissions. Some additional permissions can be added by the unit, however, there are restrictions on what can be given. See the updated Scoutbook_Permissions.pdf and the Scoutbook Plus permissions video for more details.
Hi Stephen, I’m a committee member (as we are working out some transitions so no specific title assigned) and a Merit badge counselor.
@ForumShah - as a committee member you have no default permissions
Got it. Thanks for helping out.
