With Online Campus Community, the Directory (Education Edge) part is an extension of the Directory part, with fields specific to students, faculty, and individual records in The Education Edge. You can use directories for many purposes, such as a class roster or club membership list.
To publish directories on your website, you select data types or queries to pull information from The Education Edge. For example, you create and save a query for the soccer team in The Education Edge and use this query to create a directory in Blackbaud NetCommunity. You can select fields for website users to search, such as Last name and Gender. You can include multiple-value fields, such as Course name and Activity.
Note: The Directory search can return up to 500 results that match the criteria a site user enters.
You also select fields to appear on your web page in search results. For example, you can display the First name, Last name, Photo, and Athletics jersey number fields on your student Directory page results. The field you list first acts as a link to the student’s published profile information.
