Profiles

User data can be displayed at various points in the system, for example in the info areas for people search, profile pop-ups, data completion pages, talent profiles, etc.

The information that is displayed and the available entry fields vary by context.

The navigation item "Profile information" allows the creation of sets of personal identifiers for the various points in the system. The identifiers can be divided into multiple categories.

If the multi-client-context is configured specific profile pages can be defined for clients.

Functions of the Profile Manager

Edit

For each profile information set, profile categories can be edited, added, and removed separately. For each category, a name can be entered and personal identifiers can be added or removed. Any order can be configured for a given category. If a profile information set is used as an input form, it can be determined whether the employed personal identifiers are to be editable by users. Example: If the learning platform is linked to an external user manager (e.g. an LDAP directory), some identifiers may be meant to be displayed to users but are determined exclusively by the external system. The settings of the personal identifiers themselves determine if they can still be edited for users who are managed locally rather than externally.
Note: For the "self-registration" profile page, identifiers of the forum elements "image," "upload" and "identifier set" are not possible.

Display Badges on Public Profile

When the public profile page is accessed by another user with the specified rights, the gained badges of the user whose profile is being accessed will be displayed, in the position indicated by the placement of the attribute.
The attribute "Display badges on public profile" is enabled from personal attributes for a user and this attribute is added to the "My profile" profile (ID 1).

Users can decide whether to display their badges. This is achieved by adding the attribute to the learner's editable profile and allowing the learner to uncheck the box. In edit mode, the attribute is displayed as a checkbox, while on the read-only profile, based on its value, it has the function to either display (if enabled) or not display (if disabled) the achieved badges.
