Introduction to Profile Photos

Elentra allows there to be two profile photos stored for each user:
  1. an official photo
  2. a user uploaded photo
The official photo must be uploaded by an administrative user. If a user's account has both an official photo and a user uploaded photo, the official photo will take precedence over the user uploaded photo.
User photos appear throughout Elentra. Some examples include in People Search and when triggering or completing Assessment and Evaluation forms.

Adding Profile Photos

Photos can be imported through the user interface in a user's profile but they can also be imported in bulk through the backend of the database.  If photos need to be uploaded in bulk please speak to your Elentra account manager.
Please note that if a user does not want his/her photo displayed in Elentra s/he can change his/her privacy settings in the user profile. If users select Minimum Profile their photos will be hidden from other users.

Bulk Photo Import

If you want to bulk import user photos you will need to submit a ticket with Elentra Support, or contact your Account Manager.  Each photo should be named using Lastname_Firstname.jpg or studentnumber.jpg. You don't have to worry too much about the size of the photos since Elentra will automatically resize them as needed.

Profile Photo Upload by User

If users want to upload their own profile photos they can do so through their profile. On the main Personal Information page, users can hover over the empty photo spot and click Upload Photo to add a photo.
