Welcome! This forum has a treasure trove of great info – Scouters helping Scouters! Just a heads up, though - all content, information, and opinions shared on this forum are those of the author, not the BSA.
I had several parents that were not on the “Send Message” screen. Most I was able to resolve myself by editing the parent profile and adding the parent’s email address. When I attempt to edit this scout’s parent profile, I get an Error message:
“Logged-in user does not have access to this API.”
@DonovanMcNeil , AFAIK, this parent was not a leader before having a parent connection. Their child joined as a Lion last year, and the parent did not fill out a leader application. They did help out as our pocorn kernel though.
I do see at least one instance in my units - it is 2 leader that are NOT connected to scout as parents - so they are not on parent list. Is that the case with you. I did not know they were not connected
