Ian Patrick Hines

Ian Patrick Hines is the founder and CEO of Hines Digitalan award winning, internationally renowned, conservative digital agency that’s out to beat the left at their own game by out-hustling, out-organizing, and out-fundraising them.

From November 2012 – November 2013, Ian was a NationBuilder Tech Organizer, during which time he became one of the world’s foremost NationBuilder experts. He’s now helping campaigns and organizations get the most out of their nations as a certified NationBuilder Expert & Architect.

Prior to joining NationBuilder, he spent nine years in Maryland politics where he served in nearly every role from field organizer to communications director. In 2003, when online organizing was new and unproven, he managed the GenDean Blog — at just 17-years old — and his 2010 article on the potential impact of Square on political fundraising was featured on The New York Times' Bits Blog.

A fourth-generation Marylander, he currently lives in Severna Park, Maryland with his wife Christy and their three children: Oliver, Moira and Henry.

commented on How do I make "Don't publish my profile on the website" the default?
The reason why the individual record will still have the box checked is that, in some cases, customers have multiple sites and choose to show public profiles on some (but not others).

In those cases, the site-wide setting takes precedence, but on the sites where public profiles are active it’s possible to deactivate them on an individual basis.

Mark — You can embed just about anything on an individual page using the page-level template editor. Take a look at this FAQ on embedding a Tagboard. The directions will start to become generalizable / relevant at Step #5. http://nationbuilder.com/how_can_i_embed_a_tagboard_on_my_website
