Q: Dating Site?
Hi, can I create a personal Dating Site/Directory with personal profiles and customize the back end accordingly (plans, access levels/limitations, etc.)?

While Brilliant Directories isn’t a formal dating site solution, it can get you 90% of the way there with its default features. Here’s how it can work for a dating site:
💬 Customizable Member Profiles: You can collect specific data for a dating site, like hair color, eye color, interests, likes, and dislikes. Profiles can be tailored to match what you want to display.
💞 Connect People with Similar Interests: Members can search for other members based on different criteria, making it easy to filter and find like-minded people.
✉️ Messaging & Connections: Members can message each other, bookmark their favorites, and engage in private chats to connect and build relationships.
🔒 Plans & Access Levels: You have full control over how members access your site, with customizable membership plans and access levels. You can set up free or paid tiers and limit features based on a member’s plan.
👀 Visibility & Searchability: Members can browse profiles and interact based on interests or other criteria you set up.
⚙️ Customization & Control: Easily customize the look, feel, and data on your site to adapt it for a dating community based on your vision.

Thanks for the detailed reply, Jason.
1. Would I be able to hide/blur images and partial information of peoples' profiles from public searches/view (ex. non-members)?
2. Also, where is the personal data stored, who owns it, and will I have access to it?
3. Can I disable the Reviews option?
1. You can disable profile photos or add a blur effect with some simple CSS. 👍
2. Just like other SaaS platforms, BD powers your site, but all member and content data is yours – you fully own it!
3. Yes, you can turn off any features, like reviews, to suit your site.
Is there a limit of profile photos users can upload in their profile?
Generally, members can upload 1 profile photo and/or 1 logo to their profile. They can also create photo albums with unlimited photos, or the website admin can set a limit on the number of photos if needed. You have full control over how much content members can upload! 😊
Can users use a custom domain for their BD website?
Yes. You can connect your own custom domain to your BD site anytime. You can even change it later if you need to for any reason.
I was asking if the directory members can use custom domains for their full profile page (webpage)?
