Configuration Settings

The following configuration settings are available to administrative users on the Product Configuration page in your PeopleZen Product Center, which you can access by typing a URL like http://my/share/point/_layouts/roxority_PeopleZen/default.aspx — just be sure to replace http://my/share/point with a valid full Site Collection URL pointing to your SharePoint system.

Each setting has a global value scoped to the SharePoint server farm, and this value can optionally be overridden on the Site Collection level. The following settings are available:

User Interface Language

PeopleZen has been localized for multiple languages. Changing this setting affects all user interface artifacts except captions and descriptions of Features, List Templates, Column Types, Content Types or Web Part Templates (those are always loaded directly by SharePoint based on the current Web Site locale).

You can pick one of the following options on the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center:

  • (Like site, or English)
  • English
  • Deutsch

Exclude User Names

You can optionally specify the patterns of user names (one per line) that should always be excluded from all PeopleZen User Profiles Web Parts (for example, service accounts). You may include an asterisk (*) only at the beginning ("ends with"), at the end ("begins with") or both ("contains"). This configuration setting is not case-sensitive.

After you have customized this setting, you can click the Reset to Default Value link on the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center to restore the following default value:

system\*
nt authority\*
builtin\*
sharepoint\*

Include domain name in linked user name

For displaying the name of a user, the PeopleZen User Profiles Web Part will attempt to use FirstName, LastName and PreferredName user profile properties before falling back to the AccountName property. If the latter is used and includes a backslash (\), the domain name of the user account name will be removed from the displayed name by default. On the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center, tick this check box to always include the domain name in the user account name displayed.

Window target for user profile links

User profile links produced by the PeopleZen User Profiles Web Part can target an HTML window of your choice. Use _self for these links to open in the current browser window, _blank for them to open in a new window, or the name of an IFRAME or FRAME element residing in your Web Part Page.

After you have customized this setting, you can click the Reset to Default Value link on the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center to restore the following default value:

_self

Always link to public, never to personal user profile URL

By default, user profile links produced by the PeopleZen User Profiles Web Part point to the "personal URL" (i.e. /personal/user) of the user, but users will be redirected by SharePoint from there to the public user profile URL (i.e. /MySite/Person.aspx) if they do not have access to the personal URL. On the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center, tick this check box to always link to the public URL to begin with.

HTML format for user profile property with value

The HTML to be generated by the PeopleZen User Profiles Web Part for each user profile property that has a value. Valid placeholders: {0} for the property display name, {1} for the property value, {2} for the property internal name, {3} for { and {4} for }.

After you have customized this setting, you can click the Reset to Default Value link on the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center to restore the following default value:

{1}

HTML format for user profile property without value

The HTML to be generated by the PeopleZen User Profiles Web Part for each user profile property that has no value. Valid placeholders: {0} for the property display name, {1} for the localized word 'unknown', {2} for the property internal name, {3} for { and {4} for }.

After you have customized this setting, you can click the Reset to Default Value link on the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center to restore the following default value:

{0}: ({1})

Exclude all user profile properties without values

By default, the PeopleZen User Profiles Web Part generates an HTML block element for each user profile property included per its Web Part settings, even when no property value has been set for a particular user profile. On the Product Configuration page in the PeopleZen Product Center, tick this check box to never generate any HTML output for empty user profile properties.
