Member picture field

WildApricot allows you to add member picture to the member profile. It is an optional setting and has to be setup by the administrator.

Go to Settings / Membership settings / Database fields and click on [Add new field] button. Give your new field a name (e.g. Picture) and select Picture field Type.

Move your new field to the desired location

Now when a new member is added there will be an option to add a picture.

Please wait for it to finish uploading.

Once the picture is visible you have the option to remove it or change it.

Picture will also be displayed on 'Member profile' page that is selected from 'Members directory' page

Note

Problem: images are not shown in File Management / Insert picture (you can only see file names) and are not displayed on your Wild Apricot website

This can happen if your images use CMYK color space instead of RGB one.

Normally web images are saved with RBG color space and images meant for printing are saved with CMYK color space. Some systems only support images with RGB color space, not CMYK. You can get more information on color spaces by clicking here.

  • To determine an image's color space go to: http://regex.info/exif.cgi
  • To convert an image from CMYK to the supported RGB color space you can use the free online tool found here: http://www.pixlr.com/editor/
    • Just open your image and save it as .jpg - this will automatically save it in RGB color space.
