Hide "Unknown" Marital Status in Bio Block?

[MrUpsideDown]

When Marital Status is set to "Unknown" the Bio block displays the word "Unknown" without any context. This looks strange - I think it is less confusing to display nothing at all.

Here is a change I have implemented and tested for our site:

In RockWeb.Blocks.Crm.PersonalDetail.Bio.OnLoad(EventArgs e)

Old:

lMaritalStatus.Text = Person.MaritalStatusValueId.DefinedValue();

New:

if (Person.MaritalStatusValueId.HasValue)
{
    var dvMaritalStatus = Rock.Web.Cache.DefinedValueCache.Read(Person.MaritalStatusValueId.Value);

    if (dvMaritalStatus != null &&
        !dvMaritalStatus.Guid.Equals(Rock.SystemGuid.DefinedValue.PERSON_MARITAL_STATUS_UNKNOWN.AsGuid()))
            lMaritalStatus.Text = dvMaritalStatus.Value;
}

Also, I think the Defined Value "Marital Status/Unknown" should probably be marked as a system-defined value? Currently, this Defined Value can be deleted, whereas "Married" and "Single" cannot.

Also with regard to the "Unknown" Marital Status, I think the caption on the New Family page "The adults in this family are" might make more sense if it just read "Marital Status of Adults".

We're actually removing the 'Unknown' value from the marital status defined value list, since that's essentially the same thing as no value.

Exactly! That's an even better solution - I guess the "Add Family" block will no longer have Marital Status as a required field then?

Correct, but it can now also be configured to force users to confirm entering a blank (unknown) marital status when they are adding new adults.

All bases covered then - great work!
