Our yearbooks listed each senior's club or group activity (Spanish Club, Student Council, Football team), etc. Looking for ways to include this information on each person's profile page, similar to posting their Senior Class photo.

Suggestions?QuestionIdeaQuestion

oh I think I just found a solution...add as a caption to their Senior (Yearbook) photo, but I'll take any and all suggestions.

You can use the Profile Generator to add these questions, maybe "Spanish Club (Yes/No)" and/or "Football Team (Yes/No)", then you can use the Custom Icons feature to show an icon for "Spanish Club = YES" or "Football Team = YES" and show an icon for each question. The Custom Icon feature is new and can be found on the Edit Site Pages, Classmate Profiles, then mouse-over the Custom Icon and then click and then Add Custom Icon.

What Kyle said...there are some icons already generated..but then you can make some from other gifs.

Thank you for the reply. I thought about putting them in the questionnaire, but I wanted a place where the person couldn't change it, and the information is [potentially] different for everyone.

Not sure I could compile a list of clubs to put in the questionnaire. It's been 40 years...I barely remember what organizations I participated in; since I already have the information, I wanted to put a note on each person's profile, similar to their yearbook photo.

So I thought to add this information (I already have it) as a caption on the person's yearbook photo, but now I'm confused. WHERE does this info show up?

I don't believe that a caption for the yearbook photo exists.

Non-editable profile questions is on the list of desired features that can be associated with Custom Icons, but I don't know how far along in the development cycle it is.

Sad I'm confused then. When you click on the thumbnail of a photo (yearbook, then, now, master), you are given the option to 'edit details'. This opens a window that allows you to enter a caption. (see attachment) You're saying this field isn't used anywhere?

You can correct me if I am wrong, but I am not aware of the place where that caption would display.

The Caption feature does work in the PHOTOS section of your profile, but not for Yearbook Photo and Master Photo (and Then / Now photos).

javascript:addSmiley('Sad');

I figured out a work-around. I just added a new page under 'Classmate Information' with the information. I was compiling a table of the information anyway, so I'll just paste onto the page once I'm done. Thanks for your help, though.
