Profiles - comparing contacts, and creating contacts
February 09, 2008, 06:37:34 pm
There are two functions my client could do with and as far as I know, using profiles would be the best method, however it's not a function I'm familiar with and I could do with some pointers.

Would you be able to use a profile to allow the comparison of more than one contact at a time? If so, which profile type should I use?

Also, can I use a profile/web form to add contacts to the database from a public drupal page? Drupal user registration isn't required, just a CiviCRM contact.

Thanks.

1. You cannot use profiles to compare contacts.

2. Check: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Profiles+Admin for more details on how to do part 2
