Add Local Members
Table of contents
Members can be added to the local Tribe by either the Chieftan or a Chief. Members are always added by way of the "Add Member" button of the Main Panel.
After clicking the "Add Member" button the screen for collecting new member details will appear. Fill out the fields accordingly. See below for individual field explanations.
Field Definitions
The fields for creating a new member are fairly self explanatory and not all fields are required. a red asterisk (*) to the right of a field indicates it is mandatory.
When all required and desired fields have data click "Add New Member" to continue.
| Field | Definition |
|---|---|
| Tribe Role | This is a minimally implemented function of the software to empower members with different capabilities depending on their role. Currently "Chief" and "Member" are supported. |
| Requested Login | Any unique string of characters to be used as the Tribe login for this new member. |
| Member password | The password this new tribe member will use to log into Fautore. Be aware, Fautore passwords currently show as clear text (not obscured) on the screen and are unencrypted in the database. Do not use a password commonly used for other purposes in the Fautore environment. |
| Member first name | The actual first name of this person being added to the tribe. |
| Member last name | The surname of the person being added to the tribe. |
| Member Email | Email address outside Fautore for use should the member need to be contacted in this manner for some reason. |
| Member Self Description | Self description to make one's self recognizable. Useful for remote tribe requests. |
| Avatar (small picture) | This image will appear as a member representation in both local and remote OCE's (tribes). |
| Chieftain Member Comments | Managing Fautore member thoughts about the member. Examples might be "delete after project completes on 7/22," or "Unsuspend account when back from vacation" type messages. Text in this field like "Member is a pain in the ass" is not encouraged, at least not until the screen and data security profiles are matured a bit more. ;^) |
| Default App | Select a registered application to act as the recipient of incoming information if no other application is applicable. |
