Design member accounts
|
1.
|
On the User Networking Manager part, select the Accounts/Friends tab. |
|
2.
|
To allow user networking members to maintain contact lists of their online relationships through your website, design how the contact list and members in a contact list appear on your website. |
|
a.
|
Select Enable Friends. |
|
b.
|
On the website, user networking members select a tab on their accounts to view friends contact lists. In the Display Name field, enter the name to appear on this tab. Use the default name “Friends” or enter a name more specific to your organization. |
|
c.
|
In the Friends per page field, enter the number of friends to appear on a member’s friends contact list. If the list contains more friends than the amount you enter here, the contact list contains multiple pages so the user networking member can access all friends. By default, the contact list displays ten friends on a page. |
|
d.
|
In the Profile Page field, select the page to appear as the profile page for members. The page selected must include a Profile Display part. |
To not provide a profile page for your user networking members, select “<Do not use a profile page>.” If you do not provide a profile page for your members, the My Page tab does not appear on your user networking site.
Note: The page you select in the Profile Page field provides all the information that appears on members’ profile pages. User networking members cannot generate content on their profile pages. On the Profile Display part, you can add merge fields to display information specific to a user networking member, such as the member’s profile image, unread messages, and ranking. For more information about the Profile Display part, see Profile Display.
