Email Display
When used in an email message, the Staff with Image and Bio operator will show the primary staff first, other staff will be listed in no particular order after that.
- First shows their account profile image (if they have one)
- Then their name (in the format as configured)
- Then their Account Bio (if the account form question of bio is available, so the staff account has a bio)
A horizontal rule break is between each staff member, but not one at the top, nor bottom of the grid.
You can inject HTML formatting for font, color, or size around the operator, so the staff name and bio are in a particular font and color.
Adding Bio to an Account Form
In order to allow accounts to add a Bio, you must insure a Bio question is added to your account form.
Navigate to Settings > Assignments > Forms
Search for "Account"
Select "Edit Questions" on the Account form which is currently active:
To add the new Bio questions, you will need to click the "Add New Question" button:
The Question type you will be using for the Account Bio is Description, click the "Description" account question box:
Be sure to enter a title for the form question, the Question Displayed to Customer and make any other adjustments you would like, then click the "Save" button:
When a user goes to create a new account, they will see a textbox like the one below.
