Social Media Types

Overview

The Social Media Types option allows you to create a list of Types that can be used to define web site links for each database user. For example, you may want to create a link to each user's LinkedIn account.

Social Media type options will be available when viewing the User form in Empower Desktop (Media Links page).

Adding Types

To add a type, click the Add toolbar button. This will present the Add Media Type panel.

When defining a type, you will set the following:

Option/Setting	Description

Description	Specify a description of the type
Main URL	Specify a URL that will represent a default URL when adding the type to the user
Image URL	Specify a URL to the image you wish to use on the link

This will invoke the Edit Type panel.

Once the desired changes are made, click the Update button to save the changes.

To remove an entry, click the Delete icon on the list.

You will be asked to verify the removal.
