We’ve completely reimagined the Honeycommb member directory from the ground up. This release brings together powerful new Custom Fields capabilities with an all-new member discovery experience across Web, iOS, and Android — turning your member directory into a discovery engine and opening up a whole new world of possibilities.

This wasn’t a single feature release. It’s the result of deep research, careful UX exploration, and months of design and development work focused on one goal: helping communities leverage their most powerful asset - it's people.

Smarter Discovery Powered by Custom Fields

A few months ago, we released Custom Fields 2.0, a large development project, really aimed at enabling member filtering in Honeycommb networks. We've now added yet another feature in Custom Fields - the ability to mark Selection and Yes / No type custom fiels as filerable. Network admins have complete control over what fields AND what selection answers are filterable by members. Pretty sweet, huh?

A Brand-New Directory Experience on Every Platform

The member directory has been redesigned to feel fast, intuitive, and native everywhere Honeycommb runs.

On iOS and Android, the directory feels at home on mobile: optimized for touch, speed, and exploration, whether members are quickly scanning or intentionally searching.

On Web, members get a clean, powerful browsing experience, where community members are presented with richer information, and with easy-to-use search and filtering capabilties, and results that are easy to understand and update.

Every interaction was carefully designed to reduce friction and make discovery feel natural, and... with the fear of using a basic adjective - FUN!

Built for Real Communities, Not Static Lists

Traditional member lists don’t scale as communities grow. This new directory is built for modern, active networks — where members join for connection, collaboration, and opportunity.

Whether you’re running:

• • A Creator Community
  Create custom fields unique to your members
  
  
• • A Professional Network
  Help members find each other by expertise
  
  
• • A Coaching or Education Group
  Use interests or knowledge as filters


• • A Brand-led Community
  Members can be found by aspects of brand affiliation

Designed With Intention, Built With Care

This update represents a significant investment in research, usability testing, visual design, and cross-platform engineering. Every detail, from filter logic to profile card layout, was designed to balance power with simplicity.

And this is just the beginning. We have other exciting dditions planned for the member directory AND this update is paving the way for even more impactful, new additions. So stay tuned!

We hope you love these updates as much as we do!
