Person Contact Card

CType: academicpersons_card
Plugin: AcademicPersons, plugin Card, action ProfileController::cardAction()
Set: fgtclb/academic-persons-card, or the aggregate set fgtclb/academic-persons
Templates: Templates/Profile/Card.html, see Templates

Contact cards of the profiles an editor picks, in the order they are picked: the contact person in the sidebar of a page, or the two people to ask on the page of a service. Each card is a profile item, as in the tiles of the list, with the crop variant of the card, see The crop variant of a view. The names link to the detail page.

Three contact cards showing the image and the position of the first contract.

The card shares its options with the Person List. The page TSconfig of its component, which comes with the set fgtclb/academic-persons-card, hides the list, sorting, pagination, view mode, filter and restriction fields, because a fixed selection has no use for them. The card always renders tiles. It has no PageTitle display format either: set the format on the Person Details element of the detail page.

Settings

Detail Page

Type: page
Default: empty

The page the names link to, see Detail Page.

Link the names to the detail view

Type: select
Default: Use the site setting

See Link the names to the detail view. No link is the choice for a card of a person without a public profile.

List of profiles

Type: records
Default: empty

The profiles the element shows, one card each, in the order they are picked. Empty shows the text that no profile was found. The profiles are found wherever they are stored.

Fallback to default language for non translated profiles

Type: checkbox
Default: on

On a translated page, also shows the picked profiles that are not translated into its language, in the default language. See Fallback to default language for non translated profiles.

Show only selected Fields

Type: select, several values
Default: empty

The fields each card shows, see Show only selected Fields. A card for a sidebar usually shows the image, the position and the e-mail addresses and phone numbers.

A card with an empty field selection shows the image and every contract field except the function type and the organisational unit.

Contracts per profile

Type: select
Default: All contracts

Only the first contract keeps a card short for a person with several contracts. See Which contracts a profile shows.

Only contracts valid today

Type: checkbox
Default: off

Leaves out the contracts that have ended or not started yet. A picked profile is shown whatever its contracts are. See Which contracts a profile shows.

Show hidden records

Type: checkbox
Default: off

Shows a picked profile whose Visible switch is off as well. See Profiles that are not public.

Hidden fields

The page TSconfig of the card disables these fields of the shared options: Group By, Sort By, Sort By Direction, Pagination, Alphabetical Pagination, Results per Page, Number of Links, View Mode Toggle, View Mode Default, Visitors may filter by function type, Visitors may filter by organisational unit, Organisational Units, Function Types and Only contracts of the selected organisational units and function types. The card reads none of them, and a value stored while the element was a list has no effect. The same page TSconfig is what makes the card selectable, so wherever an editor can add a card, the fields are hidden.
