Not all members will upload a portal photo. Assign your directories a default image to appear in place of members who do not have a picture on their profile. Directories without a default image will display broken link symbols instead.

Accessing Directory Settings

1. From the Administrator Dashboard, in the navigation bar, hover over 'Modules', then 'Directory', and click 'Manage Directories'

2. Click the name of the directory for which you would like to set the default image.

Adding A Default Photo

There is a slight difference between the ‘Public Directory’ and the ‘Portal Directory’. To learn what each tab does, consult this Knowledge Base article. The process to edit either tab is exactly the same.

6. Click the ‘Public Directory’ tab.

7. To upload your default image, click the ‘+ Select File’ button next to ‘Default Image’.

Clicking the ‘Select File‘ button will bring up a new window:

8. Click ‘Choose Files‘ and navigate to a file on your computer; once it is opened, this page will automatically update, and you will be able to see the image below the ‘Select File’ button.

9. If you are satisfied, click ‘Save’ at the bottom of the page to confirm your changes.

10. If you want to edit the ‘Portal Directory‘, follow the same process. Click the ‘Portal Directory’ tab on Step 6.

Congratulations, you have updated your directory’s default image!
