Overview

The Profile element is a global custom element. Data for global custom elements can be easily managed with Datasheets. The following sections describe how to configure simple management pages.

Recommended: to create a 'profileadmin' subsite for the Profile Admin pages.

Steps

  2. In the body of the page, add a Custom Script element.
  3. From the Custom Script element interface, click the "Edit" icon.
