4.1.3. Profilansicht

Your profile page is visible to others on Mahara by default. If your administrator allowed it, you can also make it visible to everybody on the Internet. In certain circumstances, the site administrator may have allowed restricting access to your profile page to institution members only. In that case, you are able to remove the access for everybody who has an account on Mahara.

In der Grundeinstellung sind nur die folgenden Informationen auf Ihrer Profilseite eingestellt:

• Ihr Anzeigename (oder der reale Name wenn Sie keinen Anzeigenamen eingetragen haben)

• Your portfolios that are visible to the person viewing your profile page

• Ihre Gruppen

• Ihre Pinnwand

• Ihre Kontakte

When other people have access to your profile page, they can perform a number of actions or get in touch with you, depending on their permissions.

Full profile page access

1. Your display name and profile picture.

2. If you are a member of an institution, the institution name is stated and linked to the institution’s contact page.

   Bemerkung

   The buttons on the right-hand side stay no matter where you scroll to on the page making it easier to access these actions.

10. Your entire profile page is visible.

Warnung

We advise you do not use your profile page as your portfolio because you have less control over who can look at the information you make available on your profile. At minimum it is everybody in your institution or who has an account on Mahara. At maximum it can be everybody online.

Always remember to think about your own personal security before releasing contact information on a publicly available page or even just for other people on Mahara.

If you do not see the full profile of a person, but just ‚Full access to this profile is restricted‘, then you can only perform a few options for this person.

Access to the profile page is restricted

Bemerkung

Nachdem Sie Ihre Profilseite oder eine Portfolioansicht öffentlich gemacht haben, können Suchmaschinen wie Google diese Informationen indexieren und speichern. Selbst wenn Sie die früher öffentlichen Informationen später wieder zurücksetzen, bleibt die frühere Versionen in den Speichern der Suchmaschinen weiter verfügbar. Ansichten, die über geheime URL verfügbar gemacht werden, werden von den Suchmaschinen nicht gefunden. Es sei denn jemand setzt öffentlich auf einer Webseite einen Link zu dieser URL.

Use regular pages to create your portfolio and your profile page as a business card or brief introduction to you without disclosing lots of details.

You can edit your profile page like any other page. You can find more information about editing a page in the section ‚Add content to a page‘.

4.1.4. Add a page and edit its settings

You add a new page in your portfolio when you want to display artefacts together, e.g. for presenting them to others, for showing your progress in a project etc.

Eine Portfolioansicht erstellen

1. On the Pages and collections page, click the Add button. In the modal that comes up, click the Page button. You are taken to the Settings.

   Bemerkung

   You can make changes to the page settings at any point in time.

2. Basics: This section includes basic page settings:

   • Page title

   • Page description

   • Schlagworte

   • Create via tags

   Bemerkung

   If you cannot see these options, click the icon to make them visible.

3. Page title: Provide a title for your page. This field cannot be left empty. If you do not enter a title, the default ‚Untitled‘ will appear.

4. Beschreibung der Ansicht: Schreiben Sie eine kurze Beschreibung, die die Ziele oder den Zweck der Ansicht zusammenfasst. Sie erscheint in der Ansicht.

5. Tags: Enter tags to find your page more easily at a later stage. You can choose from your existing tags by starting to type a letter and then selecting the tag you want to use. You can also type a new tag, select it, and it is added to your list of tags.

   Siehe auch

   You can find more information on how to use the tag selector in the ‚Tags‘ section.

6. Create via tags: You can select one or more tags to populate the page with all artefacts and blocks that have been tagged with them. If you select more than one tag, you only see content that matches all selected tags, i.e. it must match tag one and tag two.

   Bemerkung

   The page is only populated with already existing tagged content. If you tag new artefacts, they will not be added automatically. You will have to add them manually or use the ‚Create via tags‘ functionality again. Only artefacts that are not already on the page are added. That also means if you previously deleted tagged content, it will be added again.

   Content that is on tagged pages is not not added unless the artefacts themselves have been tagged.

   Once you have added artefacts automatically, you can re-arrange and also remove them as needed. Since there are several possibilities of adding artefacts and blocks to a page, the following content mappings are made when multiple artefacts of the same type are added:

   • 1 image: Image block

   • 2+ images: Image gallery

   • 1 PDF: PDF block

   • 2+ PDFs: Files to download block

   • 1 audio / video: Internal media block (as long as the format is supported)

   • 2+ audio / video: Files to download block

   • Generic file(s): Files to download block

   • Folder(s): 1 Folder block per folder

   • Journal(s): 1 Journal block per journal

   • Journal entry / entries: Tagged journal entries block

   • Note(s): 1 Note block per note

   • Plan / tasks: The entire plan that contains the tagged content

7. Accessible layout: This option is available if you set the Accessible page creation option in your account settings to ‚Yes‘. The following will happen:

   • The page is set to one column. All blocks will be placed underneath each other.

   • The Add block button can be clicked or navigated to via the keyboard and will add a block at the top or bottom of the page. Drag-and-drop is disabled.

   • You can change the position of a block by navigating to it, holding the Enter key pressed, and using the Up and Down arrow on your keyboard to change its position.

8. Advanced: Click the Arrow down icon to display all advanced settings options for a page:

   • Instructions

   • Page URL

   • Lock blocks

   • Name display format

   • Anonymise

   • Cover image

   • Theme

9. Page instructions: Write your instructions for setting up the page in the editor to scaffold the portfolio creation.

   Bemerkung

   The instructions are displayed in both edit and view mode of the page where you can collapse them if you don’t need them.

   

10. Page URL: This option is only available if the site administrator allowed ‚Clean URLs‘. Choose the name for your page if you do not like the default one. It must be between 3 and 30 characters long. You can only use lowercase letters from a-z, numbers and - (hyphen).

    Bemerkung

    If you are just setting up your page, the default URL ‚Untitled v.2‘ (or similar) is displayed. As soon as you save the page, the URL is changed automatically to reflect your actual page title.

    Warnung

    Bedenken Sie, dass andere Nutzer sich Ihre Profilseitenadresse merken. Sie können diese Adresse jederzeit ändern. Danach werden Sie jedoch nicht so leicht wieder gefunden.

    The original, internal Mahara URL, e.g. https://mahara-university.org/view/view.php?id=789 will still work.

11. Lock blocks: If you set this option to ‚Yes‘, you cannot remove blocks from the page. You can still add new blocks, re-arrange them, but cannot delete any blocks.

    Bemerkung

    This is to prevent accidental deletion of blocks from a page, in particular if it is a template page that people copied into their own account.

    Portfolio authors can remove the lock from the blocks through this setting if they wish and delete blocks once they copied the page to their own portfolio area.

12. Name display format: Choose how you want your name to appear on the page to others.

13. Anonymise: If the site administrator allowed anonymous pages, you can choose this option here. Instead of your (display) name, ‚Author’s name hidden‘ will be displayed to everyone. Administrators and staff can still see your real name.

14. Cover image: Click the Add a file button to upload or select a picture that you want to display as cover image for your page when you are on the Pages and Collections overview page. This will help you distinguish between your pages and collections more easily. For best results, your cover image should be 180px wide and 130px high.

15. Theme: If the site administrator allowed people to choose their own page theme, you can choose between the available themes.

16. Skins: Click the Arrow down icon to select a skin for your page.

17. Click the Save button to save your changes and to continue to the ‚Edit‘ screen.

You can upload or select an image for your cover image.

2. If licenses are turned on, you can select a license for the image your are uploading.

3. You can then click the Browse button to upload an image from your computer, or

4. Drag and drop and image from your computer into the drop zone, or

5. Select a previously uploaded image from your Mahara file storage.

4.1.5. Edit a page

4.1.5.1. Navigation bar

You can add and remove content from a portfolio page on the Edit page screen.

The page navigation bar stays fixed in place on the right-hand side of the screen. That way, the buttons can be accessed on short and long pages without scrolling.

‚Edit page‘ navigation bar

1. Click the Drag to add a new block button onto the page to place a block.

2. Click the Settings button to add and modify page settings like title and description and skin.

3. Click the Display page button to review your page to see how others, who have access to it, will see it. When you are in edit mode, this button is highlighted.

4. Click the Share button to decide who shall have access to your page (or collection if the page is part of one). See ‚Edit access‘ for more details.

5. Click the Return to pages and collections button to return to the pages and collections overview page.

4.1.5.2. Add content to a page

The layout can be created on the fly directly on the Edit screen of a page.

The layout functionality is based on the Gridstack plugin for jQuery. It is well-suited for responsive pages, adapts to the page width, and blocks can be resized directly in edit mode.

An extension to this plugin is the accessibility options needed to allow people working with a keyboard only or a screenreader to continue being able to create and modify pages as well.

When a page is created with an accessible layout (this page option is available if you set the Accessible page creation option in your account settings to Yes), the following will happen:

• The page is set to one column. All blocks will be placed underneath each other.

• The Add block button can be clicked or navigated to via the keyboard and will add a block at the top or bottom of the page. Drag-and-drop is disabled.

• You can change the position of a block by navigating to it, holding the Enter key pressed, and using the Up and Down arrow on your keyboard to change its position.

Bemerkung

Be careful when choosing 4 or more columns. Your portfolio page may look very good on your big 21“ screen, but a person looking at it on a laptop or tablet may not have the same experience. In most cases, up to 3 columns is the best choice.

Drag a block onto a page and resize it

1. Drag the Drag to add a new block button onto the page.

   Bemerkung

   If you use only a keyboard to navigate Mahara, you can place blocks using that when you enabled the accessible page creation in your account preferences and set you page to have an accessible layout in your page settings.

2. When you see a dotted line around a rectangle, you know where you can drop the block.

3. Once the block is on the page, the block configuration modal is displayed and you can select the block type that you want to use. You can also just change the block title and leave the placeholder block in place deciding on the type of artefact you want to add later. This is in particular interesting for the creation of templates as you can leave it up to your learners to decide what content they want to place under a heading.

   Siehe auch

   Refer to the section ‚Blocks‘ for more information on the different block types.

   A site administrator can change the order of the block types seen in the placeholder block configuration.

4. Resize the width and / or height of a block by dragging the Resize icon in the bottom right corner of a block to change its dimensions.

   Bemerkung

   Content within the block will adjust automatically to the new size when no specific restricting dimensions are provided.

5. Click the Display page button to view your page and its content without the edit controls.

Remember:

• You can align your blocks into columns and rows. If a block in a second row is as wide as the block right above it and there is no other block in between, the block will snap up to the first block. You can still arrange blocks into rows by resizing your blocks to the correct width.

• Blocks that contain dynamic content, e.g. the journal blocks, they may get longer with time and push other blocks down.

• You can re-arrange a block by clicking its heading and dragging and dropping it elsewhere.

• Sie können die Einstellungen für einen Block durch Anklicken des Konfiguration-Buttons ändern.

• Changes to the layout and arrangement of blocks are saved automatically. As soon as you made changes inside blocks or on the page itself, they are also visible to any visitor of your page.

4.1.5.3. Convert an existing page to the new layout

In Mahara 19.10 we introduced a new page layout. Existing pages need to be converted to it in order to be editable.

When you attempt to edit an existing page that is not yet in the new layout, you are asked to convert it.

Once you have converted it, check what the page looks like and make block size adjustments as needed.

Accept to convert your page to the new layout

1. Click the Accept and remember button if you want to convert all your pages to the new layout whenever you enter the edit mode for the first time on a page that hasn’t yet been converted.

   Bemerkung

   If you do not want to have the automatic conversion done anymore, you can revert it in your account preferences by setting the option Confirm before changing the page layout to ‚Yes‘.

2. Click the Accept button if you want to convert just the current page but don’t yet want to make a decision about other pages.

3. Click Cancel to leave the page in the old layout. You are not able to edit the page.

4.1.6. Edit access

The Edit access screen is displayed for the selected page. You can only select the sharing options for the page that you are editing (and the collection if the page is in a collection).

You can set a secret URL immediately rather than having to provide a secret URL separately from the other sharing options.

Edit access for the page you are editing

1. Click the Share button.

2. Secret URLs: Give your page a secret URL. For all available options, check out how to set up a secret URL.

3. Share with others: You can share your page with people who have an account on the site.

4.1.7. Eine Ansicht anzeigen

You can view a page to check what it looks like when somebody else sees it. Go to the Pages and collections overview page and click on the title of a page.

An example portfolio page

   • Click the Copy link to copy the page or collection.

   • Click the Print link to open the print dialogue.

Note: Links are not yet active and linked files or embedded media are not accessible.

   • Click the Delete link to delete your page.

   • Click the Timeline link to view previous versions of your portfolio. This icon is only visible when you saved your page to your timeline.

   • Click the Save to timeline link when you want to save a particular state of your page to your timeline so you can go back to it later and compare it to your current state. The comparison would be manual.

   As someone viewing another person’s portfolio, you can:

   

   • Click the Copy link to copy the page or collection. This option is only available if the portfolio author allowed copying.

   • Click the Print link to open the print dialogue. Using this print functionality, your portfolio page is printed in the current layout, with collapsed blocks or artefacts uncollapsed so you can see their content easily. Note: Links are not yet active and linked files or embedded media are not accessible.

   • Add or remove a page from your watchlist: Click the Add page to watchlist link if you want to be informed when changes are made to the page. When you make changes to the page or a block on the page, a notification is triggered and sent to anyone who is watching the page. This is also the case when you add a new journal entry to a journal that is displayed on your page even when you do not add the entry via the page. If you no longer wish to receive these notifications, remove the page from your watchlist by clicking the link Remove page from watchlist .

   • Report objectionable content for this page: If a page contains offensive artefacts, you can report them to the administrator and provide an explanation why you think the content is offensive. Once you have reported the material, you see Objectionable material reported instead of Report objectionable material.

   • Click the Timeline link if you want to view an older version of the page.

4.1.7.1. Details mode of a page

The Details mode of a page allows you to see more details for an artefact and also add and view comments when the page author allowed that.

When you view a page, click the Details button and every artefact that can have comments and / or has details receives a black bar at the top that you can click to see more details.

This functionality is sticky, meaning that you can refresh the page and continue being in the Details mode without having to click the button again. Also when you view another page, you will stay in this mode until you click the button again.

This facilitates the assessment of portfolios as assessors do not have to click that button all the time but can perform their assessment quickly across multiple portfolios.

View details of the artefacts on a page

1. Click the Details button to highlight it. All blocks that contain artefacts where you can view details or comment on receive a black bar.

   Bemerkung
