Viewing a Post-Doc profile

Below is an example of an existing profile within the WordPress editor. Profiles are represented as a WSYIWIG (what you see is what you get) editor, providing a close to live view of how it will be represented on the published website. Content in most areas of a profile can be edited directly as you would any other content within the WordPress editor.

Editing a Post-Doc profile

Profile Name & Title

The current name of the profile can be edited by directly changing the text in the top of the editor window. This will also change the text within the blue header and image area to match.

Within the header you can also add the following changes:

Job title/position

Free-form text area for job title/position associated with the profile.

Profile Photo

To change the profile photo, select the header element in the WordPress editor. Then hit either the "replace image" button in the floating tooltip bar OR the "replace image button" in the right-hand side configuration panel.

After selecting an image, you can adjust the focal point of the image with the "focal point picker" tool. This allows fine control over the position of the image within the cropped area.

Contact Information

Allows placement of the contact information in predefined areas. Additional areas can be added by selecting their respective buttons.

Program Affiliations

View of program affiliations pop-up. You can select multiple programs that the associated profile is affiliated with from the predefined selections. Once you select/deselect, hit "Confirm selection".

Education

Free-form text entry of educational credentials.

Social Media Profiles

Allows attachment of social media profile links. If additional social media profiles are required, click the "Add Link" button at the bottom of the listings. Here you can add a custom label and a direct link to the social media profile.

Academic Profiles

Allows link to academic profile sites such as Google Scholar or PubMed.

Other links

Area available for other links that are not social media sites or common academic profile websites.

Research interests

Example of research interests pop-up allowing for selection of research interests from a predefined list. Once selections are confirmed, make sure to hit the "Confirm selection" button.

Profile Bio Area

Within the profile bio area there are several predefined accordions available to populate. The name and order of these are unavailable for editing. Items that do not include content will not be displayed on the live website, so no need to worry about empty fields. Several of the fields available pull content dynamically into them based on associations made within other areas of the WordPress site and require no editing.

About

The topmost item in the profile listing is meant to contain the overall "about" or bio information of the current profile. This text can be edited in free-form and allows for several formatting options.

Supervisor Faculty

This area allows you to attach existing faculty profiles as supervisors to the current profile.

Adding Supervisor Faculty

To add a supervisor faculty member, select the "Add Profile" text in the top right corner of Supervisor Faculty section. This will add a new blank block for finding an existing profile with the WordPress database.

You can search for existing profiles by typing in the input field then selecting the appropriate name. Alternatively you can create a custom profile by clicking the "Create custom profile" button.
