#9 closed enhancement (wontfix)

Option to show own email address to others via profile

Description

WordPress.org profiles should have the option to show your email to other logged-in users. This would help contacting other community members without disclosing email addresses to the general public in support forum messages.

  • Keywords close added

I'd actually suggest wontfix for this.

We don't really want to get into exposing email addresses, even if it's an option. Right now, we expose Slack usernames, if a person has logged in to Slack. I can envision a time when we have a contact form on profiles, but I don't envision a time when we'll want to actually expose email addresses, even with permission.

  • Resolution set to wontfix
  • Status changed from new to closed

Agreed with @samuelsidler on all counts.
