Member Profiles: Overview

Blocks and Fields

A profile consists of several component "blocks."  Each block contains several fields. The blocks are:

  • Identity
  • About me
  • Education
  • Institutions
  • Activities
  • Publications
  • Reference

Sample Overview

The top portion of a sample Member Profile shows the Identity block in the left sidebar, an About block in the main content area (middle), and in the right sidebar, a row of share buttons, a general search field, and a list of publications.  Each block contains fields related to that block. If a given field is empty, it will not be displayed.
