Configure contact information on person links

When users click a person link, the Person card displays contact information for the selected person. We configure this information by modifying custom properties in the WAS console, specifying the Member Manager attributes that correspond to the fields to display in the contact information and the order in which we want the information to appear.

1. Select the appropriate console, depending on the environment:

   • If we are running stand-alone, use the local WAS console.

   • If we are running in a cluster, use the console of the Deployment Manager.

2. Start the WAS console by entering the URL in the location field of a web browser:

   http://example.com:admin_port/ibm/console

   where example.com is the name of the server and admin_port is the port assigned to the WAS console.

3. In the navigation, click Resources > Resource Environment > Resource Environment Providers.

4. Locate and click the resource WP PeopleService.

5. Under Additional Properties, click Custom Properties.

6. Locate the custom properties collapsedBCardItems and expandedBCardItems and set each property's value to the Member Manager attributes to display. The order in which specified the attributes determines the order in which the corresponding information displays.

   collapsedBCardItems

   Identifies the items the Person card displays when business card details are hidden from view. For example: ibm-jobTitle, telephoneNumber

   expandedBCardItems

   Identifies the items the Person card displays when business card details are visible. For example: ibm-primaryEmail, homePostalAddress, stateOrProvinceName, postalCode, countryName
