Defining Talent profile forms

JamarGig allows you to customise the information that can be collected from talent in their profile.

By default JamarGig had predefined fields and in the future will also be providing the ability to define you own custom fields. However you can also override existing field labels so they can be reused to collect different information.

To define which fields you want talent to be able to enter in their profile area go to the Global settings area and select Data Model.

From here you can select fields and display their properties.

The properties for each field include:

  • Field Label: Label for the field displayed in their profile

  • Status: Whether is enabled

  • Field name: This is the internal field name of the system

  • Type: The type of field. The valid types include:

    • Text

    • Image

    • Date

    • Location

    • Textarea

    • Phone

    • Dropdown

    • Email

    • Number

    • Skills (special field for listing skills)

    • Size

    • Weight

  • Casting Profile Section: This is what section the field is displayed in the Talent profile within the casting portal

  • Talent Profile Section: This is what section the field is displayed in the Talent profile within the talent portal

  • Visible to: This sets the scope of which type of users can see this field:

    • Admin (this is enabled for all fields)

    • Casting team: This includes casting leads or contributors

    • Talent: This is whether this field can be viewed by the talent in their talent portal

    • Client: This is whether clients can view this field when access working cast lists

  • Layout: This specifies how the field will be displayed either taking up the full width of the profile area or only 50% of the talent profile area.

Managing Lists

For dropdown fields the listed items are able to be changed by selecting the lists within the Data Model area.

The lists will display all lists that are referenced by dropdown fields. To confirm which list is used by each dropdown select a dropdown field in the Talent Profile area and select the dropdown field you want to change the values for.

When you select the field you will see the value for the "LOOKUP" setting. In the example above this is Nationalities.

You can then select this list for the Lists view and update the values which can be selected.
