Profile Form

With the Profile Form part, you can create profile forms for constituents and organizations to update their biographical, address, and contact information. For example, Jane Compton is a member of the Class of 1988. When she visits your website, she navigates to the user profile page and enters the information you selected to appear on the individual Profile Form part, such as her full name, current address, and spouse information. You can download the information she enters on your website to The Raiser's Edge.

You select the fields of information to appear in each section of the form. The user can select whether profile information is public (all users can view it) or private (only the user can view it). We recommend you use the profile form on password-protected pages only.

Note: When users update their profiles, the changes appear in profile displays or directory listings automatically, even before the changes are downloaded.

If a user is a relationship type with appropriate rights, he or she can edit profile information for an organization. For example, you can specify that only constituents with a relationship type of “Administrator” or “Primary Contact” can edit their organization’s profile.

Note: To edit an organization’s profile, in addition to the relationship type set on the Settings tab in Sites & settings, the website user must be established as a contact for the organization in The Raiser's Edge.
