[Building Sakai] Custom profile fields

[Andrei Chirila]

Hi Steve,

I’ve sent you already an email the past days but I guess you didn’t have time to check your emails yet.
We’ve met at the Sakai conference this year in Atlanta. I was with Mark on behalf of the LOI. ☺

Can you please share with me your ideas about the technical approach for making configurable fields in Profile 2?
I guess it will have impact on the backend so we need to think how much time we assume it would take our team, depending on the solution.

Looking forward to your response,
Andrei

Hi Mark

Yep and prfl-230.  Let me know if you need any help, I've thought all of this through, just haven't had a chance to implement yet.

Cheers
Steve

Hi Steve,

Are you referring to https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/PRFL-390?

I will investigate if we can implement this feature.

Cheers,

Mark

Yep there is an outstanding Jira for this,  and certainly a good one to do. Basically it is just re-doing the backend for the profile info and adding some config for the fields to display. If someone wants to tackle I can walk you through what needs to be done, I estimate a weeks effort.

Cheers

We want to do the same thing. (We want to add ‘academic interests’ type fields (and maybe remove some current fields)). It would be good to be able to do this in some form of configuration file so one doesn’t have to edit the source code??

Subject: [Building Sakai] Custom profile fields

Hi all,

We are thinking of adding additional fields to the Profile 2 tool to better match our distance learning needs. However creating a patch that will add some fields and removes others probably won't be merged with the community code because it would be a very institution specific patch (ie not generic). Still we prefer not to create our own local fork of the tool.

Has anyone thought about ways to make the fields customizable per institution?

Cheers,

Mark
