How do I create a contact box?

  1. Select the WEB → Page module.
  2. In the page tree, select an appropriate page. This could be the Default Elements sidebar, for example.
  3. In the right content area, click Create New Content Element.
  4. In the Special Elements tab, select the Contact box.
  5. To create a contact, you need to select Create New in the extension options.
  6. Now you have the option to choose between a UNIGRAZonline contact (business card) or a free contact.  
    • In the free contact you can now fill in all the required fields.
    • If you select business card, the fields available in the form will be affected. Please confirm the required saving with OK. Now you need to enter the last name of the person in the search field. Click on the correct person in the drop-down.
      1. If certain data from UNIGRAZonline does not fit, you can overwrite it in the same field or hide the field completely.
  7. Do not forget to save.

In your personal homepage you can add a profile picture (independent of UNIGRAZonline). To do this, the picture must be uploaded via the file list and selected in the contact box business card.

 

Free contact
All fields must be filled in by the user. An additional contact person can also be defined - but with fewer input fields.

  • This can be used for general contact information without directly naming a person.

Business card
Can be selected only for employees with a valid staff account. Values can be overwritten or hidden in the contact box.

  • This can be used for contact persons e.g. of an event of a secretariat.

In the case of the free contact, the entries must be completed manually.


In the case of the business card, the data is taken from UNIGRAZonline. Changes made in UNIGRAZonline (e.g.: adjustment of office hours) will be visible on the website only the next day after the synchronization is finished.
