    I'm trying to print baptisms and confirmations for my grandchildren to do. I don't want to print all ordinances on the males because I am widowed and have no way of doing those ordinances. Then they are tied up. please provide a way to select just the ordinances we can do.

    FYI

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    [ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]

    Just in passing ...

    I am sorry ...

    Short Answer: "OrdinancesReady" in NOT the answer ...

    You are not alone ...

    The desire, that we be able to "Print", the "Temple" Cards, for the opposite "Gender", from ourselves, through "OrdinancesReady", is a FEATURE that MANY (Member) Users/Patrons have yearned for and requested.

    Now ...

    That Said ...

    We can ALREADY, "Print" the "Temple" Cards, for members of the opposite "Gender", to ourselves.

    We can do that ourselves, in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch", in the "Ordinances" 'Tab', of our Ancestors.

    We can (both, "Reserve"; and,) "Print", the "Temple" Cards for whichever "Gender" we desire, Male; or, Female; as, there is NO restriction.

    So ...

    That Said ...

    What you desire is SOMETHING that "OrdinancesReady" was SPECIFICALLY designed, NOT to be able to do.

    Please let me explain ...

    Please be aware that the "OrdinancesReady" feature/function/facility is ONLY, really, for a quick; and, easy, process of, FINDING; and, PRINTING, the "Temple" Cards, when one is going to visit the "Temple", that day or the next, when one DOES NOT have ANY "Temple" Cards, 'on-hand', available.

    The "OrdinancesReady" feature/function/facility is certainly NO substitute, for doing one's due diligence, well IN ADVANCE of visiting the "Temple" of, FINDING; and, PRINTING, the "Temple" Cards, for one's Ancestors, to have 'on-hand', available, through one's "Reservations" List; and/or, normal research.

    Hence, the reason, that we ONLY get "Temple" Work, for people, of the SAME "Gender", as ourselves, is a DESIGN Feature of "OrdinancesReady".

    I would humbly suggest that, your desire, may not be considered as appropriate, in view of the intended Design.

    Here are some "Knowledge Articles", in 'FamilySearch':

    How do I find family names for the temple with Ordinances Ready?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-find-family-names-for-the-temple-with-ordinances-ready 

    Where it states, among other things;

    Quote

    ------------------

    Ordinances Ready is designed to provide family name cards for the person signed in to the website or the Family Tree app. For example, if you are female, it only searches for ancestors who are likewise female so that you can perform their ordinances.

    ------------------

    And ...

    Where does Ordinances Ready get names?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/where-does-ordinances-ready-get-names 

    Where it states, among other things;

    Quote

    ------------------

    Ordinances Ready finds names for you that are your **** (that is, male names for male users and female names for female users).

    ------------------

    Plus ...

    Why does Ordinances Ready keep giving me the same family names?

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/why-does-ordinances-ready-keep-giving-me-the-same-family-names

    Why does Ordinances Ready keep giving me ordinances that I just did?

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/why-does-ordinances-ready-keep-giving-me-ordinances-that-i-just-did

    And ...

    Ordinances Ready gave me a reprinted family name card

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/ordinances-ready-gave-me-a-reprinted-family-name-card

    Just my thoughts.

    Good Luck.

    I know, that this certainly may not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective; and, another avenue to pursue.
