Summary

The participant display templates in your workspace will determine how the participant profiles will look in the event. There are two display templates for participants that are used in the event, and that can be modified. These templates are:

• Person template: Used to customize how the participant information displays in the event, in the participant list and the participant profile.
  
  
• Profile template: Used to choose which fields the participants can edit themselves in the their profiles. By default, particpants can edit their profile photo, email address and mobile numbers. 

How to modify the participant display templates?

Go to Content > Users module, and open the Display template tab.

Here you can toggle between the Profile and Person templates:

How to modify the Person display template

The Person display template represents the content that will be visible on the participants' profile page when seen by other participants:

The Bust component determines how the banner in the background of the participant's profile will look, and uses the participant's first name {{{fname}}} and last name {{{lname}}} metadata to display their identity.

The Toolbar component allows you to configure the functionalities related to the participant's profile page. This includes enabling messaging, notes, and briefcase functionalities. These options are all enabled by default, but can be turned off here.

The LinkedIn profile link component allows you to turn on or off the LinkedIn integration for the participant's profile. The integration is turned on by default, and allows participants to sign in to their LinkedIn profile and import their information into their event profiles.

The See feed activity component is a link that will display the participant's feed activity when selected.

The Biography component here is a standard text component with "Biography" as its title, and that used the metadata {{{biography}}} to pull the participant's biography information for their profile.

The wv.person.contact item visible here corresponds to the Contact information component visible to the left fo the screen. This functionality is used to exchange business cards, as well as determine what information will be included as part of the participant's business card, using the check boxes.

Important: If you modify fields that have already been populated, any previously added information (and updates) may no longer appear in the profiles.

Once you have edited the Person template settings here, remember to click the Save this item button at the bottom of the page.

How to modify the Profile display template

The Profile display template allows you to choose which fields the participants can edit themselves in  their profiles in the event.

By default, participants can edit their profile photo, email address, mobile number, and add a link to the LinkedIn profiles (as well as import their LinkedIn information).

Deleting a specific component listed here will mean that participants will not be able to edit that specific information in their profile. Deleting all the components here will mean that they will not be able to edit any of their profile information.

Here, you can also add components that will be editable by the participants, such as the Text input or Choice components.:

1. On the components side of the page, to the left, expand the Form elements section or Model specific section.
2. Drag and drop the Text input or Choice item to the main page. 
3. The Text input components can be used with metadata. To do so, click on the added Text input component, expand the Advanced settings section in the configuration panel to the right, and in the Value key field, enter the metadata that corresponds to the participant's information that you would like to make editable.

For more information on the available participant (or user) metadata, please refer to the Metadata manager article.

Once you have edited the Profile settings here, remember to click the Save this item button at the bottom of the page.
