| What is Keep Off Leaderboard? |
| --- |
| Keep Off Leaderboard is a Member Management control that removes an Administrator, Moderator, or Member from the Leaderboard ranking, or restores them to it, without restricting their participation in the community. |

The Community Administrator manages Leaderboard visibility for members from Member Management. A member removed from the Leaderboard can be restored at any time by switching the control back On.
