Profile / person examples
By Department – Profile custom content type (Person content type needs work?)
Don’t have to be in accordions but can be. Some of the Profiles are alumni profiles rather than faculty? Using “faculty” as a keyword adds another filter though. Edited the first one in Advertising to provide more of a business card type setup. Made that profile 250 tall x 100 wide, but other options are available; we’d want to experiment.
I set this up grabbing content from “Profiles” rather than “Persons” because Profiles seemed to have more information in the random ones I sampled, but “Person” is probably the correct structural solution because it’s set up with more precise field control… but Person also didn’t produce Content View results when I tried to grab a Person collection for Media and Cinema Studies, so that may take some tag experimentation (after vacation lol).
Advertising (tall photos option)
No posts found.
Journalism (wide photos option)
No posts found.
Media & Cinema Studies (can’t seem to swap to Persons, no Persons content found?)
I wanted to compare Profile and Person views, but couldn’t get any Person views to display, so I’m not entirely sure what Persons are being used for?

Business card version
This is what you get when you start your content block with a formatted set of text, as opposed to the straight into the profile article version.
