In this tutorial you will learn how to add a people finder to your course menu.

The People Finder makes it easy to look up colleagues and get more information about them. The People Finder will show the first name, last name, profile picture, function, department, telephone number, email address and a brief description of the person. Additionally, it is also possible to add links to Social Media accounts like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram and Skype. A User Manager or Admin can add important people who do not use AppicalNow to the People Finder through the editor so can be found by the new employees as well.

*We recommend to use Google Chrome to ensure an optimal experience when using AppicalNow.

Step 1. Click on ‘Courses’ in the menu on the left.

Step 2. Next, click on ‘editor’ in the bottom left corner of the course where you want to add a glossary.

Step 3. Click on ‘Menu Items’

Step 5. Enter the name the desired name for your new People Finder and select ‘People Finder’ in the dropdown menu.

Step 6. A People Finder without people in it is like China without rice. Let’s add some people in it. Head over to the new menu item that you just created and click on the button that says view.

Step 7. Click on the button that says ‘Add Person’

Step 8. It’s possible to sort the items by category so all the items that fit in the same category are grouped together. In the next step we will learn you how to make categories. Fill the fields that you want to add and upload an image. Click on ‘Create’ when you’re done.

Step 9. As promised, we will learn how to make different categories to organize the checklist a little bit. Click on the button that says ‘Categories’. Click the button and a new window will pop up.

Step 10. Click on ‘add a category’, type the name of the new category and click on ‘add’.

You can drag the categories to set them in the desired order. Dragging a category all the way to the right will give you a pop up that asks if you want to delete the category.

Hooray! You now know how to add a People Finder!
