Giving Profile a 'Title' and a 'Name'
September 09, 2008, 04:03:14 pm
Wondering if it would make life easier for others too if Profiles could have a 'name' that is not made public, and a 'title' that is. At present, with a standard set up, whatever the Profile Title is, is what shows on the Profile page.

There are cases where I would like to be able to have a name/description eg Contact details inc newsletters, but a Title that shows as just Contact details.

This would help us manage a complex set of profiles. Cheers

How about an optional "Description" field? I assume you'd want it to be displayed in the admin profile listings ?? Would you need to be able to sort by this text - or could we append it to the title (perhaps in parentheses) ??

Hi Dave - probably happy with idea of it being in parentheses after title. And yes optional description would do it. cheers
