PT Profile Subsites

Overview

Profile pages can to be created in a specific subsite. The subsites for the profile pages can differ by role. Each role can have it's own subsite. This is managed in the Site Configuration.

Follow the steps to create a new subsite and update the pt_profile config file.

Profile Admin Subsite

It is highly recommended that the Profile Admin subsite be created for administrators. This allows security to be setup for the subsite to allow only administrators access.

1. Create a new subsite called profileAdmin.
2. Create a new subsite within the profileAdmin subsite called lightbox. This will be used for the lightbox pages.
3. Configure the lightbox General Security to not inherit security from parent. When the installation is completed, comeback and remove the Show CommonSpot Interface permission from all groups and users.
4. Configure the lightbox Content Security to not inherit security from parent. Change the Authenticated Users to only have read permissions.
5. Configure the profileAdmin subsite Content Security to give 'No Rights' to 'Anonymous Users' and 'Authenticated Users'.
6. Configure the profileAdmin subsite Content Security to allow permissions to the group of administrators that will manage the Photos.

Note: We are setting up separate security for the lightbox subsite because these pages security will differ from the profileAdmin subsite.

Profile Roles Subsite

1. Create a new subsite called 'general' (where 'general' is the role name).
2. Find the subsite id for the new 'general' subsite.

Update Profile Site Config

This subsite will be used to store the profile pages. Update the pt_profile.xml config file that we setup in Site Configuration. Update the <SUBSITE_ID> tag value with the subsite id for the subsite you just created.
