Member

Member profiles can be tied to a Scholars@Duke profile. With this option, changes made in Scholars are automatically propagated to the website. 

Typically, faculty member profiles are setup to sync with Scholars@Duke via a feed at the time the site is created. 

Edit a Scholars@Duke Member

There are a few fields that are unique to your site and can be updated without being overwritten by the Scholars@Duke feed. These fields include:

  • Title Override
  • Member Type*
  • Status*
  • Other

Member profiles can be added manually. There are a lot of data input fields - each one is mapped to a field from Scholars@Duke.
