Profile Fields and Demographics
Things to Know
-
The default fields for your community can be accessed and altered through the “Community” tab in your Admin
-
If your team is using User Groups you can manage their profile fields, teams, and segments separately.
-
The only REQUIRED profile fields are date of birth (for legal purposes), email (for account creation), and name. All other fields are not required by our system but can be required by your team for your users!
How profile fields are requested from new users
All new users are requested to input their profile fields during step 8 of the onboarding process. The only REQUIRED profile fields are date of birth (for legal purposes), email (for account creation), and name.
Managing profile fields as a user
Users can manage their profile fields by heading over to their profile>settings cog>edit profile. As an Admin you get to decide what fields are available and what fields are required. A user can change their information at any time but they are not automatically prompted if your team makes any adjustments to required or available profile fields.
Managing the default profile fields as an Admin
If you head over to the Admin, on the left hand navigation scroll down to the section called “Configuration” and hit “Community” this gives you access to the default profile fields and more. I highly recommend creating user groups to gain more control over your profile fields.
Managing profile fields for a specific user group
Once a user group is enabled you can select which fields are requested, which are required and which should be visible to other users. To create a user group, on the left hand navigation scroll to the section called user configuration>user groups> and hit new user group. These fields can be managed at any time.
