People Feature

Overview

The People feature allows you to create content for individual people, which can be featured/listed in a few different ways. A "Person" content item has fields for the person's name, role, job title, bio/CV, research interests, a photo, and contact information. This feature is a good way to create and showcase a directory of people on your site. 

The feature includes the Person content type, a category (taxonomy) for person types, a People listing page, several display widgets, and an option to sort/search the People content.

Creating and Editing People

See Create People Content for instructions. 

People Photos

The Person content type includes an option for uploading a photo that will display on the individual Person page, as well as in some of the available People listing widgets (and other listing widgets). 

If you do not upload a photo to accompany the Person, a default image of the Campanile will display instead. You can customize your own default image if desired.

See Create People Content for more information and instructions.

Viewing and Displaying all People

A list of all people on your site is available at the path "/people". By default, the list is displayed as a sortable table with Name, Job title, and Role. You can customize this page to add widgets or to use a different display of the People listing widget. There are also several People-specific listing widgets that can be used on any page that can be customized. 

See People Widgets for more information.
