Use Resource Finder for Profile Pages

Select to use Resource Finder participant profiles as the source for participant information for Collaborative Workspaces and Content Management.

In Collaborative Workspaces, these Resource Finder participant profiles will be used as the source for member profiles accessible from the Members module. When a user clicks a member name link in the Members module, the member profile that appears will be based on the member's Resource Finder participant profile.

In Content Management, these Resource Finder participant profiles will be used as the source for user profiles accessible by clicking user name links in the components. For example, fields such as Created By, Checked Out By, and so forth will contain user name links.

For this option to work as designed, you must have the following setup in place:

• Resource Finder is set up and loaded with data.

  This setup includes the generation of associated Resource Finder search collections.

• Resource Finder participants are loaded with their associated user IDs, where applicable, using the Load Participant User IDs Application Engine process (EPX_LOAD_OPR ).

  See Loading Participant User IDs.

If you leave this option blank, when a user clicks a member name link in the Members module, the member profile that appears will be based on information from these tables: PSOPRDEFN, PSUSEREMAIL, EPPCW_MEMBERS, and PS_EPPRC_IM_USERVW.

See Viewing Member Profiles.

See Setting Up an FTP Service For Image Attachments.

Discussions Viewing Default

Select Flat View to display all discussion postings in chronological order with details.

Select Threaded View to display the hierarchy of the discussion without the details.

Site Specific

Select to make a discussion forum viewable only within the site in which it was created. For example, if Site Specific is selected and a user is in the Customer portal, then in the Discussions pagelet, that user will see discussion forums that were created in the Customer portal only.

Deselect this option to make all discussion forums appear regardless of the portal in which it was created. For example, if the user is in the Customer portal, then in the Discussions pagelet the user will see discussion forums created in the Customer portal, Employee portal, Supplier portal, and so on.

Note. If you select a role other than PAPP_USER, make sure to select Update Privilege Sets on Save to automatically update the privilege set assignments to the new role.

Update Privilege Sets on Save

Select this checkbox to update all privilege set assignments to the base user role when you select Save. This option enables you to change the role name in the privilege set assignment for all the features that have the concept of privilege sets.

This enables you to use your own 'base' role instead of the delivered role. So, if you change your base role, it's not a customization. This setting lets you update all the privilege set assignments to your role. We deliver some system data using this role, but some of these privilege set assignments (like for discussions) are not accessible online.
