The community directory feature enables your CollegiateLink system to display information about a user to others.  This may include user profile informaiton and additional fields that you determine are important to be public.

 

1. Contact a CollegiateLink team member (support@collegiatelink.net) to enable the community directory feature

2. Determine which fields will be set to "Show" by defult

For administrator-defined additional fields first you must allow the field to be used by the community directory. For all intents and purposes this identifies this field as a system-defined user profile field.

Navigate to Administration > Configuration > Manage additional fields

For system-defined additional fields navigate to administration > configuration > community directory defaults and choose which fields you'd like to show by default on the directory cards (for privacy, users will always have the option to opt-out of these defaults and opt-in other fields)
