Widget standards

A preset is needed for this widget.

Do:

  • Only place this widget in the main content area.
  • If a faculty or staff member leaves the university, you will need to remove them from the widget manually.

Do NOT:

  • Use multiple people widgets to add each individual person to your page. Use one people widget with multiple people in it.
  • Add a placeholder image to a people page. Since images are optional, the system will automatically populate an Action C for the profile image when no image is added.
  • Leave "Auto-generated" as the selected option under Single List Items.
