Calendar for events + option for email sent at publish of event

Hi Heartbeat team! I have two feature requests I'd love to see added: 1. Member-facing community calendar feed (iCal/Google Calendar subscribe link) Right now there's no way for members to subscribe to the community's event calendar so they can see all upcoming events directly in their Google Calendar or Outlook without having to RSVP first. I'm actually a member of another community on Circle that has this, and it's a game changer. I can see everything on my calendar and decide what to hop on. I'd love for my members in my Heartbeat community to have that same experience. It would drive a lot more organic event participation. 2. Option to suppress the publish email when publishing an event Currently when you publish an event, an email automatically goes out to all invited members. There's no way to turn that off while still keeping the reminder cadence that I want (7 days, 2 days, 1 hour before). I create a lot of events at once and don't want to flood my members' inboxes every time I publish a new one. It would be really helpful to have a simple toggle at the event level, something like "send invite email on publish: yes/no", so we have control over that separately from reminders. Thanks for considering these!

Radio Buttons during Directory Search Filters

When I am searching in the directory, and I add a filter, what do the radio buttons mean when it says "have value" or "no value"? Those radio buttons filter members based on whether they've filled in that particular profile field or not: Has value — shows only members who have entered something in that field (e.g., they've set a location, added a bio, etc.) No value — shows only members who have left that field blank It's a quick way to find members who haven't completed certain parts of their profile, or to narrow your search to only those who have. You "Value" to me sounds like a monetary term and not a location term... HB may be using "Value" as a unit of measure or distance term. I think the radio buttons for the Location filter should be something like "Field Empty" and "Not Empty" ore "Includes Location" That's great feedback! You're right — "has value" and "no value" are technical/developer terms that don't translate well to plain language, especially in a location context. Something like "Includes Location" and "No Location Set" (or your "Field Empty" / "Not Empty" suggestion) would be much clearer for everyday users.
