The McGill Profiles Index in the Web Management System (WMS) allows users to search for people alphabetically while the profiles search box allows users a full-text search on profiles content.
In this article:
When enabled, an index will appear at the top of your Profiles List.
The value next to a letter indicates how many profiles under that letter can be found. In the example below, two profiles can be found under the letter “P.”
If a letter does not appear, then there are no profiles being indexed under that letter.
Clicking on a letter will display all profiles indexed under that letter. Generally, a profile will be indexed by the person’s last name. However, some people may want to be indexed under a different name from their last name. In this case, an indexable name can be specified.
When the search box is enabled it will appear at the top of the Profiles List page.
