Implementing profile changing
The change profile webpage allows a user to view and modify personal information which they can then resubmit.
You typically implement a change profile webpage in several places:
- Somewhere on your website add a "My Account" link which directs users to a page where they can update their profile information.
- Include a link to this webpage in all email messages that Audience Manager sends to the user.
A visitor or email recipient can use this link to reach the login screen for changing their profile. The visitor or email recipient then fills in an email address and password and submits this information to see a form for changing profile information.
Implement or customize a change profile page as follows:
- For ASP.NET websites: modify or customize the
changeprofile.aspxand thechangeprofile.aspx.cspages and deploy them on your Web site - For JSP websites: modify or customize the changeprofile.jsp page and deploy it on your website
Add code to your Page Templates to insert subscription links in emails using the Modular Templating Framework.
- Add an
AudienceManager_ChangeProfileURLmethod to the Dreamweaver Template in order to create a link to the Web page in which a new subscriber confirms their subscription. For example:<a href="@@AudienceManager_ChangeProfileURL@@">Click Here to change your profile</a> - Define a query string in the Change Profile Query String parameter of the Add Subscription URLs to Package Template Building Block, to define a query string to add to the Change Profile URL. The Change profile page URL is the URL of the webpage in which a subscriber can change their personal information and is defined in a Publication's Audience Management tab.
