You may customize your profile so that particular information will not be viewable by other constituents. If you would like to hide information in your profile, go to “My Profile” and click on “Update My Profile” at the bottom. Then, type in any updates you would like to make and click “Send.” (Please note that it may take up to 48 hours for changes to appear since we review and confirm each updated profile prior to posting changes.) Q: How do I search for people using the directory? A: Tap “Directory” in the left corner menu and then type in the search box the name of the person you are seeking. If you are unsure of the spelling, you may type a few letters in the name, click “Search” and the app will pull a list of possible matches. You also have the option to search by class year and company name by typing into the search box.

Q: How do I search for people nearby? A: Tap the “Alumni Nearby” tab in the left corner menu. A map will appear with pushpins indicating Westminster alumni who live or work in your area. Clicking on one of the pushpins will open that person’s listing in the directory. You may also click the clipboard icon in the top right corner of the map to view a list of people nearby. To search for alumni in the map feature, click on the search icon (magnifying glass) at the bottom of the map. If you are traveling and looking to visit Westminster alumni in other cities, you may search for them across the globe by entering any ZIP code, city, state or country, and the map feature will show you that location along with alumni in that part of the world. You can also click the filter icon on the map page to narrow your results. Q: How do I connect using my LinkedIn and Facebook accounts? A: The app allows you to connect and network with other people using LinkedIn and Facebook accounts. When you first log in to the app, you will be asked if you would like to connect via LinkedIn and/or Facebook. You may choose one, both or neither. Your LinkedIn and Facebook profile information will then be added to your EverTrue profile. Once you are in the app, you can view information that people have included in their LinkedIn and Facebook profiles along with the number of connections you have in common. Anything marked as private in Facebook or LinkedIn remains private. If you are not connected to an alumnus/alumna, you will not see his/her private information or feed, nor will he/she be able to view yours. Don’t forget to list Westminster School in the education field in your LinkedIn profile and be sure to join the Westminster School LinkedIn and Facebook groups. If you opt not to immediately connect your LinkedIn and Facebook accounts, you may do so at any time by going to “Set Up” and clicking on “Manage Accounts.” Likewise, you may disconnect those accounts in the same manner. Q: Can I email or call alumni directly from the EverTrue app? A: Yes. From the “Directory” tab, click on the mail or phone icon at the top of someone’s profile to email or call. Phone calls may only be made from devices with phone capability. Your normal calling/text charges may apply.
